§ MR. REDMONDasked Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, Whether it is a fact that for some months past Carrickbyrne Lodge, county Wexford, the residence of Mr. Browne Clayton, has been occupied by police; and, if so, what is the nature of their duties there, and if they are paid for as extra police by the county?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. W. M. JOHNSON)Sir, since the 16th of January a party of Constabulary has been stationed in Carrickbyrne Lodge for the purpose of protection and ordinary constabulary duty in preserving the peace of the district; but they are not paid for as extra police by the county.
§ MR. REDMONDasked whether the district required to be protected?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. W. M. JOHNSON)I take it for granted that that is so.
