§ Mr. HUGH BARRIEasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he had seen the resolution of the Associated Chambers of Commerce urging that clerks to surveyors of taxes should all be civil servants; and what action he proposed to take in the matter?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEI have not, so far as I am aware, received a resolution on this subject from the Associated Chambers of Commerce.

§ Mr. HUGH BARRIEasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the fact that in England, Wales, and Scotland none but established civil servants are allowed to touch or see any assessments made by the Special Commissioners, he will at once establish all the clerks in Ireland, as all the assessments in Ireland are made by the Special Commissioners, and all the work of copying Schedule B assessments and writing out the notices of assessment is performed by the surveyors' clerks?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEI regret that I do not see my way to differentiate in the manner suggested between clerks in the offices of surveyors of taxes in the different countries.
