HC Deb 02 May 1905 vol 145 c675
DR. THOMPSON (Monaghan, N.)

To ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he will consider the advisability of so altering the constitution of the University of Dublin that the Board of that Institution shall be elected by the Junior Fellows and Professors, and that the principle of co-option may also be adopted, so as to permit of the immediate election of a certain specified number of Roman Catholics on the governing authority.

(Answered by Mr. A. J. Balfour.) Legislation would be necessary to give effect to this proposal, and this is not contemplated by His Majesty's Government.
