HC Deb 03 June 1892 vol 5 c559
MR. KNOX (Cavan, W.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether he can now state the result of his consideration of the claim of the Cavan Guardians, set out in a Petition to this House, in the matter of "Ryan v. the Guardians of the Cavan Union"?

SIR JOHN GORST

The Local Government Board, Ireland, have satisfied me that there are sufficient reasons for postponing the consideration of this question till the collection of the August instalment of seed loan is complete. I cannot, therefore, add to what I have already said in answer to similar questions.

MR. SEXTON

Can the right hon. Gentleman say whether the liability will be discharged?

SIR JOHN GORST

That would be raising another question.

MR. SEXTON

What other question could be raised except as to discharging the liability?

[No reply was given.]
