§ MR. VINCENT KENNEDY (Cavan, W.)I beg to ask the Prime Minister if he will state whether any Minister of the Crown is responsible to the House of Commons for the action or inaction of the Lord Chamberlain.
§ THE PRIME MINISTER AND FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Sir H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN, Stirling Burghs)The Home Secretary has been in the habit of answering Parliamentary Question on behalf of the Lord Chamberlain, and of seeing that he is furnished with the best legal advice; but it would require legislation to make him Parliamentarily responsible for the Lord Chamberlain.
