HC Deb 24 June 1890 vol 345 c1782
MR. W. CORBET (Wicklow, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, with reference to a representation made to him in April last by the inhabitants of Greystones, to the effect that the harbour recently constructed there had silted up, and is practically useless, and to his statement that Government are considering the matter, whether any decision has been come to; and whether the Treasury, in view of the fact that the plans were carried out in the face of the representations of the fishermen and boatowners, will grant the sum necessary to erect a north groyne, and dredge the accumulated shingle out of the harbour?

MR. JACKSON

If the locality or the Grand Jury will contribute a fair proportion of the cost of the additional works required, I shall have no objection to directing the Board of Works to undertake them.
