§ MR. REGINALD LUCASTo ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he I can hold out hope that before the adjournment he will be able to announce any new scheme for administering the Greenwich Hospital Funds, in view of the heavy demands to which they have recently been subjected.
(Answered by Mr. A. J. Balfour.) This Question, as my hon. friend is aware, is one of difficulty, and although some progress has been made, it is still under consideration, and I fear it will be quite impossible to make any statement on the subject before the present adjournment.
