HC Deb 09 June 1891 vol 354 c24
MR. CLANCY (Dublin Co., N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether he can now state the result of his inquiries in reference to the withholding of a half-holiday on Saturday from the employés of the Irish Boards in Howth, Kingstown, and other parts of the Dublin district?

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. JACKSON,) Leeds, N.

As I promised, I have made inquiry about the hours of labourers, &c, at Kingstown and Howth Harbours, and I find that there will be no difficulty in so arranging the work that the men will in future have a Saturday half-holiday.
