HC Deb 27 November 1916 vol 88 c33
63. Mr. G. TERRELL

asked when the interim Report of Lord Balfour of Burleigh's Committee will be published or a copy issued to Members?

The PRIME MINISTER

I cannot answer this question till His Majesty's Government have had an opportunity of considering this Report.

Mr. TERRELL

May I ask whether, in view of the great urgency of this matter, the Report, will be issued to Members soon?

The PRIME MINISTER

I cannot say as to that. The Report will be considered by the Reconstruction Committee, probably not this week, but early next week. The Government are fully alive to the urgency of the matter.
