HC Deb 11 November 1882 vol 274 c1632
MR. MACFARLANE (for Mr. GRAY)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Why the three month's pay for extra duty, promised by Lord Spencer to the Dublin Police Force has not been paid to them; and, when the Report of the Committee appointed to inquire into the grievances of the Police will be laid upon the Table of the House?

MR. TREVELYAN

No promise of three months' pay was ever made by Lord Spencer. All that he promised was that applications and complaints of the Dublin Metropolitan Police should be referred to a Committee of Inquiry. That Committee, which has been very carefully composed, is still sitting, and will probably report early in December.
