Financial Relations (Great Britain And Ireland)

45.

Mr. GODFREY LOCKER-LAMPSON
asked the Prime Minister whether he will reconsider his decision not to publish the evidence given before the Secret Committee on Irish finance?

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Asquith)
I must refer the hon. Member to the replies which I gave on 7th November last. What I said then still holds good.

Mr. G. LOCKER-LAMPSON
Is it not the fact that during the last few weeks the Under-Secretary for Ireland said that there was no objection whatever to this evidence being published?

The PRIME MINISTER
I am not aware of that. Perhaps the hon. Member will send me the statement and I will look at it.
