From the _Round Table Hansard_, August 25th.
Giants' Bay Select Committee .-- Lord Merlin was in the chair.

The committee sat for a short time to draw up rules of procedure and arrange an adjournment.

It was decided to prorogue the inquiry for six months, in order to allow witnesses to attend.

A brief discussion ensued on the question of costs, and a short Bill was drafted, which it is proposed to add to the estimates.
The Chairman expressed an opinion that an additional twopence on the income-tax would amply cover the costs of the commission; and it was agreed to await the passing of the Bill before fixing the date for the next meeting.

The committee then adjourned.
