§ 49. Mr. NEWMANasked whether the Government are now in possession of the Report of the secret Committee on abuses in the use and tenure of agricultural land; and whether the same will be published in time to render it available for study and discussion during the Whitsuntide Recess?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. I am unable to say when a Report will be published by the Committee.
§ Mr. NEWMANDoes the right hon. Gentleman recollect that he himself promised that this Report would be available by the end of April?
§ The PRIME MINISTERNo, Sir, I never promised anything of the kind.
