§ MR. LEAasked the Secretary to the Admiralty, If, in 1878, Admiral Phillimore, then Admiral Superintendent of Naval Reserves, urged the building of a new Coastguard station at Kincaslagh, county Donegal, and if, in consequence of his representations, an officer of the Board of Works was sent down, who selected a site for the station; if, shortly after, the Admiral Superintendent of Naval Reserves so strongly approved of his predecessor's action that a ninety-nine years' lease of the ground was obtained in October 1881, the tenant right settled for, and all preliminary arrangements made; and, if, after so much expense incurred, it is intended to proceed with the work?
§ MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANThe site selected for the new Coastguard station has been again inspected, and further inquiry has led the Admiralty to decide against erecting the buildings at Kincaslagh.
