HC Deb 11 June 1880 vol 252 c1751
SIR PATRICK O' BRIEN

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, When the works in connection with the Shannon drainage will be commenced at Killaloe?

LORD FREDERICK CAVENDISH

If the hon. Gentleman will allow me to answer the Question, I may say that tenders at Killaloe for the Shannon drainage have been invited. The last day for receiving them was the 30th, and the works will take place as soon as possible after the contracts have been completed.
