HC Deb 17 April 1890 vol 343 cc671-2
MR. ARTHUR O'CONNOR (Donegal, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that the Grand Jury of Donegal have agreed to a baronial guarantee for the working expenses of a line of railway from Stranorlar to Glenties, through the town of Ballybofey; whether such guarantee includes the area of that town; whether representations have been made to the Treasury that such a line running through the town will rather injure than serve it, unless provision is made for a station there; and whether the Treasury will take steps to secure that this shall be done?

*THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. JACKSON,) Leeds, N.

Representations have been made to me on this subject, which will be carefully considered before any final action is taken.
