§ MR. SEXTONI 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 UniversityI 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. SEXTONMay I take it that the Lord Chancellor will ascertain their views?
§ MR. MADDENYes, Sir.
