§ MR. REMNANT (Finsbury, Holborn)To ask the Secretary for Scotland if he is aware that the sum of £l,400, which Lord Overtoun along with Colonel Denny offered through the Churches Commission towards Free Church accommodation in Dumbarton, and to which the Commission proposed to give effect, is the proceeds of sale of an old Free Church property in Dumbarton, and that the property mentioned was left in trust, the proceeds from rent of same to be paid annually to the Minister of the Free Church in Dumbarton; and whether, in view of this fact, he will call the attention of the Churches Commission to this proposed diversion of a trust fund.
§ (Answered by Mr. Sinclair.) The Commission, I have no doubt, are fully informed upon this matter, but I shall be glad to lay before them the substance of the observations contained in the hon. Member's Question.
