HC Deb 25 January 1886 vol 302 c318
COLONEL NOLAN

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If, in consideration of the difficulties caused by the agricultural depression, he would permit such unions as might apply for more time to defer the payment of the fourth and last instalment of the Seed Rate for another twelve months?

SIR WILLIAM HART DYKE (who replied)

said, this was more a Question for the Treasury than for the Chief Secretary. He would ask the hon. and gallant Gentleman to postpone it for a few days.
