§ MR. FIELD (Dublin, St. Patrick)To ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether the Treasury will grant to the men employed in the Science and Art and Natural History Museums and College of Science, etc., in Dublin the terms asked for in a memorial forwarded by the Department two years ago, which are similar to those already granted to the attendants of the London and Edinburgh Museums by their respective Boards, following on the changes that had taken place at that time, owing to each department being placed under local administration.
(Answered by Mr. Arthur Elliot.)The memorial has not been forwarded to the Treasury, and I understand that the Department of Agriculture are not at present in a position to make a recommendation in regard to it.
