HC Deb 03 April 1884 vol 286 cc1480-1
MR. HEALY

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, If he would explain why it is that the new system of warehousing Bonded Goods is not yet applied to the Irish ports except in Dublin and Belfast, and is it intended only to apply it to those ports, and are Cork, Waterford, Limerick, Londonderry, and Newry, to be abolished as warehousing ports?

MR. COURTNEY

Sir, the new system of warehousing bonded goods already exists in the Excise warehouses at Cork and Limerick, and will probably be introduced elsewhere in Ireland in two or three months, as soon as some questions of detail are arranged. There is no intention of abolishing the five ports named as warehousing ports.
