HC Deb 10 March 1904 vol 131 c765
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether an appointment has yet been made to the post of Provost of Trinity College, Dublin, which has now for a considerable time been vacant; if the appointment has been made, why has there been no official announcement of the Fact; and, if the appointment has not been made, what is the reason of the delay.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

No appointment has yet been made. There has been delay, though no longer than has often taken place with regard to appointments of similar importance.
