HC Deb 01 April 1912 vol 36 cc1010-1W
Mr. CLANCY

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether his attention has been called to the fact that, subsequently to the 16th March, 1908, namely, on the 1st and 6th April, 1908, an undertaking was given by the then Secretary to the Treasury in regard to the publication of both the correspondences (Cd. 4025 and 4026), and that this undertaking, coupled with the note appended to Cd. Paper 4025, makes it clear that the whole of the correspondence relating to the Irish daily mail service was to be published when completed; and, in these circumstances, will he carry out what his predecessor, the right hon. Member for Dewsbury, agreed to do in this matter.

Mr. MASTERMAN

I do not think my right hon. Friend gave any pledge on the dates mentioned to do more than consider what Papers could be laid. As the hon. Member is aware, the correspondence in question was subsequently published in Cd. Papers 4025 and 4026, and I cannot admit that there has been any undertaking to publish further correspondence.
