THE EARL OF ARRANasked Her Majesty's Government when the Report of the Evicted Tenants Commission would be laid on the Table of the House; and whether the statements on which the Report was founded would be laid on the Table at the same time. He said no doubt the report of the Commission would take some time to draw up, but there was no reason why the evidence, which was completed early in January, had not been produced after the Commission ceased to sit, and sufficient time had elapsed for correction.
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE ADMIRALTY (Earl SPENCER)My Lords, the Report of the Commission, with Minutes of Evidence and Appendices, was laid on the Table on the 9th inst. It is understood that the printers forwarded from Dublin last night copies of the Report, and their distribution will follow in the ordinary course. The second volume, containing the evidence, will not be ready for distribution for at least a week. This matter, however, did not depend on the Government or the Commission, but on the arrangements made at the Stationery Office.
§ House adjourned at twenty-five minutes past Five o'clock, to Thursday next, a quarter past Four o'clock.
