MR. JUSTIN HUNTLY M'CARTHYasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether, in the 507 event of Mr. Clifford Lloyd being restored to official position in Ireland, it will be to any position like that which he formerly occupied?
§ MR. TREVELYANI have nothing to add to what I have already stated—namely, that the present position of Mr. Lloyd is that he is a Resident Magistrate on leave, and that his leave will expire in September next.
§ MR. HARRINGTONMay I ask, whether the office filled by Mr. Clifford Lloyd in Ireland has not been abolished; and, whether the right hon. Gentleman intends to make a new position for him in Ireland now, because of his valuable services in Egypt?
§ MR. TREVELYANI cannot answer this Question. The office filled by Mr. Lloyd has been abolished; but there are analogous positions, somewhat fewer in number, in Ireland. As to the future of Mr. Clifford Lloyd, I cannot answer at present.
