HC Deb 19 July 1911 vol 28 c1036
Mr. GINNELL

asked the Prime Minister if he will have the House furnished with a descriptive schedule of all documents prepared by Government Departments and submitted to the Committee investigating Ireland's financial relations?

The PRIME MINISTER

No, Sir. The Committee are pursuing their investigations for the information of the Cabinet, and I do not think any object would be gained by publishing a list of the documents which they may have found it necessary to discuss.

Mr. GINNELL

asked the Chief Secretary whether he had yet succeeded in obtaining from any Irish representative person or body an expression of approval of the Committee investigating Ireland's financial relations for the benefit of the Cabinet; and, if so, would he name the-person or body?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND (Mr. Redmond Barry)

My right hon. Friend has never asked or sought anybody's approval of the Committee to which the hon. Member refers.

Mr. GINNELL

Has he. as a matter of fact, received any approval?

Mr. REDMOND BARRY

The answer is simply that it was never asked.
