§ MR. COLLERY (Sligo, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether any final arrangement has been come to between the Treasury and the Water-ford and Limerick Railway Company for the completion of the Collooney and Claremorris line; if any hitch, as reported, has arisen in the matter; and whether, in the event of the Waterford and Limerick Company not proceeding with the work, the Government have in view any further arrangement by which the line may be completed?
§ MR. MADDEN (who replied)I am not in a position to make any definite and conclusive statement in answer to the question. If the hon. Member would put it to the right hon. 514 Gentleman the Chief Secretary on Thursday he may be able to give him the information.
