HC Deb 10 March 1892 vol 2 cc506-7
MR. SEXTON

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland, with reference to the establishment of a Local District Registry for the issue of Writs of Summons at Belfast, whether he can state if any action has been yet taken in the matter?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. MADDEN,) Dublin University

I communicated to the Lord Chancellor of Ireland the suggestion of the hon. Gentleman, as I stated in answer to a former question. The matter can I only be dealt with by a majority of the Judges. The Lord Chancellor informs me that he has the matter under consideration; but as most of the Judges are now on circuit, he has not hitherto been able to ascertain their views on the matter.

MR. SEXTON

May I take it that the Lord Chancellor will ascertain their views?

MR. MADDEN

Yes, Sir.
