§ MR. HEALYasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether it is the fact that the extra pay to be voted to the police will include allowances to men not paid off before the 24th April last; and, whether, in that case, there is any reason for refusing to allow the extra amount to Ex-Sub-Constable Walsh, who was not paid off until the 27th April?
§ MR. TREVELYANSir, the Inspector General of Constabulary informs me that the words of the Order issued to the Constabulary in reference to the proposed grant are that members of the Force who were serving in the Force on the 24th of April, 1882, will be entitled to participate in the grant. Ex-Constable Walsh was discharged from the Constabulary on the 13th of February, and is not entitled to share in the extra pay.
