HC Deb 19 March 1886 vol 303 cc1356-7
MR. WILLIAM ABRAHAM (Limerick County, West)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether the vacancies on the Board of Governors of the Limerick District Lunatic Asylum, caused by the death of the Most Rev. Dr. Butler, Bishop of Limerick, and the Very Rev. Dean O'Brien, will be filled immediately by the appointment of Catholic ecclesiastics?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Mr. JOHN MORLEY) (Newcastle-on-Tyne)

What the hon. Member suggests appears to me to be a very proper thing to do, and I will communicate with the Lord Lieutenant about it. Some little time will necessarily be occupied in making the usual inquiries.
