HC Deb 09 June 1890 vol 345 cc345-6
MR. M'CARTAN (Down, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether he has yet received any official Report as to the present condition of the harbour at Donaghadee, County Down; and if any steps will be taken to render it safe for vessels calling there?

MR. JACKSON

Yes; I have received a Report upon the condition of this harbour, but I only received it within the last day or two, and have not had an opportunity of considering it.

COLONEL WARING (Down, N.)

Did the Inspector who went down to Donaghadee make any inquiry, and what soundings did he take?

MR. JACKSON

It was not necessary for any Inspector to take soundings. He would be able to see at once the condition of the harbour.
