HC Deb 02 June 1881 vol 261 c1881
MR. O'SULLIVAN

asked Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, Whether petty session clerks in Ireland are entitled to charge a fee of 1s. 6d. for each form required for liberty to have arms under the Peace Preservation (Ireland) Act?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. LAW)

Sir, arms licences are to be granted by the licensing officers whom the Lord Lieutenant has appointed for the purpose, and petty sessions clerks have nothing to do with the granting of them.
