§ MR. KENNYasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If the Government has yet decided what to do with Mr. Clifford Lloyd, ex-resident magistrate; and, if it is proposed to reinstate him in his former position, in what part of Ireland will he be located? I would also like to ask the right hon. Gentleman what salary Mr. Lloyd will receive?
MR. O'BRIENBefore this Question is answered, I would like to know whether it is a fact within the knowledge of the right hon. Gentleman that Mr. Clifford Lloyd objects to return to Ireland?
§ MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANI am not aware of the amount of Mr. Clifford Lloyd's salary. Mr. Lloyd still holds the office of Resident Magistrate. He has been on sick leave for some time, but will shortly return to his duties in a district in the North of Ireland.
MR. O'BRIENThe right hon. Gentleman has not answered my Question, whether it is within his own knowledge that Mr. Clifford Lloyd objects to returning?
§ MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANI do not suppose it is a matter to be taken very much into account what the particular wish of the Resident Magistrate is.
