HC Deb 27 December 1893 vol 20 cc258-9
MR. MACARTNEY

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether provision has been made in the Estimates for the ensuing year to complete the work at Carlisle Pier?

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Sir J. T. HIBBERT,) Oldham

The Estimate for Public Works and Buildings, Ireland, for 1894–5, is not yet before me, but I can assure the hon. Member that the Board of Works are fully alive to the desirability of certain improvements at the Carlisle Pier, Kings- town.

MR. MACARTNEY

Do I understand the right hon. Gentleman to give a pledge on behalf of the Board of Works to complete those works?

* SIR J. T. HIBBERT

No, Sir; but my wishes are that the Board of Works should give every consideration to the subject.
