§ MR. W. J. CORBET (Wicklow, E.)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, When the Re- 1176 ports on Ardglass Harbour, presented 18th February last, and Arklow Harbour, presented 4th March, will be in the hands of Members; whether he has observed that over five months have elapsed since the inspection of these harbours was made by the engineers for the purpose of reporting, and that the Reports are only a page and a-half each in length; and, whether he will take any notice of the apparently needless delay in the matter?
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Mr. JOHN MORLEY) (Newcastle-on-Tyne)With reference to these two questions, I have to state that I am informed by the Stationery Office that the Report on the Ardglass Harbour will be in the hands of Members to-morrow, and the Report of the Barrow Drainage Commission will be in the hands of Members on Monday next.
