§ LORD FRANCIS CONYNGHAMasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, If he would mention the date of the request to the Board of Works in Ireland for a Report on the subject of the difficulties which had arisen with regard to loans to Clare fishermen; and, when such Report will be ready, and whether he will lay it upon the Table of the House at the earliest possible moment?
§ MR. J. LOWTHERSir, I understand from the Board of Works that they have not received any request for a Report upon this subject, and I fancy there must be some mistake.
