§ MR. B. WHITWORTHasked Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, What action, if any, the authorities intend to take in regard to the seven day licences issued in October last by Mr. Cathcart, of the Inland Revenue Office, Dublin, to holders of six day licences, the Court of Queen's Bench and the Court of Appeal having decided in the case of Egan v. Cathcart that such action was illegal?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. GIBSON)Sir, I do not think it would be desirable to take any action during the period purported to be covered by the licences referred to; 1720 but, having regard to the recent decisions, it may probably be argued next October that the holders are only entitled to receive six-day licences.
