HC Deb 18 July 1890 vol 347 cc214-5
MR. PINKERTON (Galway)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland whether his attention has been directed to a judgment of the Court of Exchequer, whereby it would appear that certain professors of the late Queen's University have sustained a loss of nearly one-half their incomes by the dissolution of that University, and to the observations of Chief Baron Palles and Mr. Baron Dowse as to the imperfections in the Act which prevent the legal award of compensation; and whether Government will give effect, by legislation or otherwise, to the suggestions of the learned Judges?

MR. MADDEN

I am making inquiry. Perhaps the hon. Gentleman will be good enough to postpone the question until Monday.
