HC Deb 28 February 1910 vol 14 c582
Captain COOPER

asked the Chief Secretary if he will grant the Return in the name of the hon. Member for South Dublin?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

If the hon. and gallant Member will substitute the words "who were allowed to grow tobacco in the season of 1909" for the words "to whom Permits have been issued for the growth of tobacco," I shall be glad to grant him the Return for which he asks.

Captain COOPER

I shall be glad to do so.

Mr. WILLIAM REDMOND

May I ask the right hon. Gentleman whether he will consider the advisability of including in this Return not merely the area under tobacco, but the amount of tobacco raised on the area and the amount of duty?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I think there is no objection, but I do not want to say offhand.

Mr. WILLIAM REDMOND

Will the right hon. Gentleman let me know if there is any objection?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

If the hon. Gentleman would communicate with me indicating what he wants, I would be happy to consider it. I do not think there is any difficulty about it if the hon. Gentleman will produce his words in writing.

Mr. WILLIAM REDMOND

I will do it straight away.
