§ MR. SEXTON (Kerry, N.)In the absence of the hon. Member for Cork County, W., I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether a copy of the evidence given at the coroner's inquest as to the cause of the death of Jeremiah M'Carthy in Cork Gaol will be laid upon the Table of the House; and whether any further proceedings with regard to the action of the police and Governor of Cork Gaol in this matter are contemplated?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE DUCHY OF LANCASTER (Mr. BRYCE, Aberdeen, S.)My right hon. Friend, who is not well enough to attend here to-day, has asked me to answer the questions addressed to him. With regard to the first paragraph. I beg to refer the hon. Gentleman to the Chief Secretary's answer to a similar inquiry addressed to him on Monday last. As regards the second paragraph, the Chief Secretary considers there are circumstances connected with the action of the police in the matter which demand further inquiry, and this is now about to be carried out.
