HC Deb 01 August 1890 vol 347 c1553
DR. TANNER

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether ex-Constable Peter Brennan, late of the Royal Irish Constabulary, who was convicted by a Coroner's Jury of "wilful murder," has been allowed or encouraged to retire from the police, and granted a pension of £72 per annum; and whether Brennan, having failed in business as a publican in Kinsale, has been recently employed as a bailiff by the Sheriff for the County of Cork?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I only received notice of this question this morning. I must ask the hon. Member to defer it until Monday.

DR. TANNER

I will repeat it to-morrow.
