§ Mr. BIRRELLThe Government of Ireland Bill does not alter the tenure of the professors.
§ Mr. AUBREY HERBERTasked the Prime Minister whether he will now say what the status and powers of the Statutory Commissioners, acting tinder the powers conferred upon them by the Irish Universities Act, 1908, will be; and if he can see his way to safeguard the powers of the above Commissioners by excluding them from the operation of the Government of Ireland Bill?
