HC Deb 30 May 1907 vol 175 c95
MR. BARRIE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland when the Report of the Commission appointed to inquire into the working of the Board of Agriculture and Technical Instruction (Ireland) will be presented.

MR. BIRRELL

I am informed that the Commissioners are not unanimous as to the terms of their Report. I understand that the Report of the majority is substantially complete and will be submitted in the course of a few days. A minority Report, however, is to be prepared, and this will not be ready for two or three weeks.

MR. BARRIE

Will the right hon. Gentleman endeavour to let the House have the Report before we deal with the Estimates concerning this Department?

MR. BIRRELL

I will use my best efforts to secure that.
