§ MR. CAREW (Kildare, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, with reference to the sworn information made by Timothy Shine at New market Petty Sessions against Constable Connolly and Jeremiah Murphy, charging them with conspiracy to murder, whether he has sanctioned the Inspector General's decision to allow Constable Connolly to continue discharging the duties of a police officer pending the trial, or whether he will now have him suspended from the performance of such duties while such a serious charge is hanging over him?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI understand that the sworn information referred to does not charge either Constables Connolly or Jeremiah Murphy with conspiracy to murder. The Inspector General of Constabulary sees no reason whatever to suspend the constable.
