HC Deb 21 September 1886 vol 309 cc1109-10
DR. TANNER (Cork Co., Mid)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether his attention has been called to the conduct of Dr. Barrett, J.P., at and after the recent meeting of the Inchigeela Dispensary Committee, on the occasion of the visit of the Local Government Visiting Inspector, when Dr. Barrett insulted and struck repeatedly Rev. Mr. Holland, P.P.; and, whether the attention of the Lord Chancellor will be called to the behaviour of the Justice of the Peace in question?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY (SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH) (Bristol, W.)

This Question only appeared on the Paper this morning; and if I may make a request to hon. Members with reference to similar Questions, I will ask them to give at least two days' Notice. The Local Government Board have no information with regard to this matter, and I have had no time to make inquiry.

DR. TANNER

said, he would repeat the Question on Thursday.
