and that was the case of the copy of a Minute
of the Treasury Board itself. In this case the document has

of the sort in question as could be considered as constituting
a precedent I have extended my examination to the
whole series of successive Reports from the Treasury to the House
of Commons bearing that same title and the result afforded
by the whole series is the same.
