HC Deb 11 June 1883 vol 280 cc209-10
MR. SYNAN

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether, by letter of the 18th April 1883, the Board of Public Works informed the Board of Guardians of the Rathkeale Union that they had effected an insurance on the Ballastkerry Dispensary buildings for the sum of £1,150, at the rate of 3s. per cent.; whether, by resolutions of the 21st March and 2nd May 1883, the Board of Guardians objected to pay more than 1s. 6d. per cent. being the usual rate in the Union, and whether the rate was reduced in consequence of said resolutions; whether, by resolutions of the 11th April and 2nd May 1883, the Board of Guardians called upon the Board of Public Works to inform them how the sum of £1,150 was apportioned over the separate buildings in order to enable the Board of Guardians to effect an additional insurance; and, whether the Board of Public Works have complied with those resolutions, or will now do so?

MR. COURTNEY

Sir, the facts appear to be correctly stated in the Question; and I learn that the Board of Works have already complied with the resolutions referred to.
