HC Deb 06 August 1883 vol 282 cc1616-7
MR. SYNAN

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether he has made inquiries into the circumstances connected with the letting of the Mungret Agricultural School and Model Farm, in the county of Limerick, and the shutting up of the National School connected therewith; whether said School has been shut up by order of the Lord Lieutenant and consent of the Lords of the Treasury, or by the Trustees of the Local Act of 42 and 43 Vic. c. 220; whether the shutting up of said School is warranted by the said Act; and, whether the Government will direct the Commissioners of National Education to erect another school for the parish of Mungret, or order the said Trustees to pay the one-third of the Grant required by the said Commissioners out of the rents and profits of said Buildings and Model Farm, or to restore the said schoolhouse to the parish?

MR. TREVELYAN

This is the same Question which the hon. Member put to me a week ago. I have nothing to add to the reply then given. I have not yet obtained the further advice which I have asked for in the case.
