§ MR. FORREST FULTON (West Ham, N.)asked, Whether the Executive Government in Ireland possessed any power or authority whatever to regulate 528 and control the time or manner of service of criminal process either in this country or in Ireland, as recently suggested by the hon. Member for West Belfast (Mr. Sexton); and, if so, from what source was so dangerous a dispensing power derived.
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR) (Manchester, E.)I am not very learned in these legal matters; but I believe the Attorney General, who is responsible for the administration of the Criminal Law, has power to regulate the time of service of legal process.
§ THE LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN (Mr. SEXTON) (Belfast, W.)asked, if it was not the case that all persons executing process in Ireland were not under the control and supervision of the Executive?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURNo, Sir.
