61. Mr. LLEWELYN WILLIAMSasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the Government actuary, Sir Alfred Watson, as stated in the Third Report of the Commissioners of Church Temporalities in Wales, has made a Report as to the operation of paragraph 2 of the Fourth Schedule of the Welsh Church Act, 1914; whether the Report has been submitted to the Representative Body of the Church in Wales; and whether the Government are prepared, in order that Welsh representatives in this House as 1547 well as the representatives of the Church should be made acquainted with its contents, to lay the Report upon the Table?
§ Sir G. CAVEThis Report was received and was communicated by the Commissioners to the Representative Body with a view to an agreement being arrived at in accordance with the Act. As, failing agreement, the question will have to be referred to arbitration, I do not think it desirable that the Report should be laid upon the Table at the present moment.
