IN the House of Commons on the 12th June,
Sir Thomas Esmonds
asked the Chancellor
of the Exchequer if he would state what the
difficulties are connected with
the Con

the
introduction of the Bill to establish a Public
Trustee for Ireland this Session by the Chief
Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.
Mr.. Lloyd George.—

contemplated under
the Government of
Ireland Bill it would be impracticable to
impose on the Consolidated Fund of the
United Kingdom a contingent charge

relations with the Consolidated Fund ;
and
