Mr. HAZLETONasked the Chief Secretary whether he will grant a Return, in continuation of House of Commons Paper, No. 259, of Session 1913, bringing the figures up to the current year?
§ Mr. DUKEIn view of the need for economy and the pressure on the staffs of the various Government Departments, it has been decided to postpone, as far as possible, the preparation and publication of Returns which are not of an urgent nature. I hope that in the circumstances the hon. Member will not press for the granting of this Return during the present year.
