HC Deb 09 April 1891 vol 352 c141
MR. A. O'CONNOR

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether arrangements have yet been made for a station at Ballybofey, on the new Stranorlar and Glenties Line?

MR. JACKSON

I am informed that there is to be a station situated to the east of Ballybofey, at a distance of less than half a mile., It has, therefore, not been thought necessary to incur the expense of building a separate station.

MR. A. O'CONNOR

Have not representations been received from the district to the effect that the markets will be thoroughly destroyed unless a station is erected?

MR. JACKSON

I am not aware of any representations having been received, but I remember that when I was in the district somebody spoke to me in connection with the question to which the hon. Member refers, and I answered at the time that it might be found desirable, if possible, to make a station there.

MR. A. O'CONNOR

Will it be done?

MR. JACKSON

I do not know whether arrangements have been made for it, but I will inquire.
