HC Deb 08 July 1890 vol 346 cc1098-9
MR. DALTON (Donegal, W.)

I beg-to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether he has received from the Finn Valley Railway Company a resolution of their Board, stating that they are "prepared to work the extension railway from Stranorlar to Glenties at cost price"; and whether, in view of his statement that the Government attach great importance to satisfactory arrangements for working being made, if possible, with existing Railway Companies, now that this Company have proposed satisfactory arrangements for working this extension, he will state whether the Government are prepared now to forward the Stranorlar and Glenties line?

*MR. JACKSON

Yes, Sir; I received yesterday a copy of the resolution mentioned from the Secretary to the Finn Valley Railway Company. Inquiry will be made and the proposal considered, but I cannot at present express any opinion upon it.
