HC Deb 14 July 1890 vol 346 c1610
MR. MAURICE HEALY (Cork)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland if he can now state what decision the Irish Government have come to with regard to the recent Report of their Inspectors, as to the overcrowding of the Cork Lunatic Asylum, and the necessity for additional accommodation for the inmates?

*MR. MADDEN

The Inspectors of Lunatic Asylums report that the additional buildings now in course of construction at the Cork District Lunatic Asylum will provide accommodation for 409 patients, which will then give a total accommodation in that Asylum for 1,209 patients.
