HC Deb 20 June 1890 vol 345 c1498
SIR T. ESMONDE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the potato blight has appeared in the South of Ireland; and, if so, whether the Government intend taking any action in connection with it?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I have received no report on the subject, and I must ask the hon. Gentleman to put down the question for another day.
