HL Deb 07 March 1887 vol 311 c1362
THE EARL OF KIMBERLEY

asked the Lord Privy Seal, When the Report of the Commissioners on the Belfast Riots would be published?

THE LORD PRIVY SEAL (Earl CADOGAN),

in reply, said, that the Report of the Commission had not yet been presented to either House of Parliament, by reason that the Report, as at present received, was incomplete, in asmuch as one of the Commissioners (Mr. M'Hardy) had dissented from the others, and made a separate Report. It had been hoped that, by a short delay, the Report might be presented in a complete form, with Mr. M'Hardy's supplementary Report. As the latter had not, however, been received, the Report of the other Commissioners would be presented in its present state, and would be laid upon the Table in the course of a few days.
