HC Deb 30 May 1892 vol 5 c209
MR. O'KEEFFE (Limerick City)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland if, having regard to the fact that the Irish Mayors have been removed from the Commissions of Assizes in Ireland and the Irish Judges have refused to lunch with the High Sheriffs, he will direct the discontinuance in future of cavalry escorts with trumpeters, sentries at their lodgings, and escorting and attending Judges in Ireland at ensuing and future Assizes?

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

I have no information, as a matter of fact, on the subject of the hon. Member's question; but I may say that the matters referred to in it are entirely outside my province, and I have no power to give such directions as are suggested in the question.
