§ MR. W. REDMONDI beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland whether his attention has been called to the resolutions passed at a public meeting held in Derrygonnelly, County Fermanagh, in which, after stating,
That the occupiers of land in the valley of the Sillies River, in County Fermanagh, suffer serious loss from sudden floods year after year. That they are willing and anxious to contribute according to their means to the cost of such works of arterial drainage as would remove, or substantially diminish, the evils to which they are exposed,complaint is made of the cost of the preliminary expanses imposed on promoters and disproportionate liabilities on landlords, and the attention of Her Majesty's Government is drawn to the necessity for a general measure for promoting and assisting arterial drainage in Ireland; and whether the Government will take any steps in the direction indicated by these resolutions?
§ *MR. MADDENI am not in a position to answer the question, but inquiry will be made.
