§ MR. T. M. HEALY (Longford, N.)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether Sub-Inspector Summerville and Constable Ward, released on bail after a verdict of wilful murder, have resumed police duty; are they since in the receipt of pay, or what is their position; and, do 1456 the Government intend to prosecute them?
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY (Colonel KING-HARMAN) (Kent, Isle of Thanet)(who replied) said, the officer and constable are on leave of absence, and not on duty. They are both in receipt of pay, and will return to duty on the expiration of their leave, as the Attorney General sees no grounds to advise a prosecution.
