HC Deb 21 April 1887 vol 313 c1408
MR. W. J. CORBET (Wicklow, E.)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If it is a fact that the Grand Jury of the County Wicklow reduced the amount passed at the Presentment Sessions for the maintenance of the Wicklow County Infirmary; whether he will inquire into the grounds for the reduction; and, whether it is a fact that the Board of Governors of the Infirmary recently refused to allow the Secretary of the Grand Jury to act as a member of the Board?

THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY (Colonel KING-HARMAN) (Kent, Isle of Thanet)

(who replied) said: The relations between the Grand Jury and the Governors of the County Infirmary are matters in which the Government cannot interfere. I have, however, been informed that the facts as stated are substantially correct; but it is not proposed to make any further inquiry into the matter.
