§ MR. M. BROOKSasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether he is aware that, notwithstanding the remonstrance of the Lord Lieutenant against the burial of the carcases of diseased cattle within the City of Dublin, such burials have continued up to the present time to take place in the field between Roper's Rest and Love Lane; and, if so, whether he will take any and what steps to cause the practice to be discontinued?
§ SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACHI have no official information as to the continuance of these burials in the field alluded to, and have received no complaints since the Guardians were written to on the subject. The Guardians are not subject to the control of the Government in respect to the place of burial selected; but if they find a difficulty in obtaining a proper place for the purpose, they may dispose of their carcases by boiling them down instead of burying them.
