§ MR. E. BARRY (Cork Co., S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware of the great difficulty which at present exists in the Dunmanway Union in repaying the second instalment of the seed loan; and whether, in view of such difficulty, he will grant a further extension of time for its repayment?
MR. J. MORLEYThe first instalment due by this Union has been paid, and the second is in course of collection. The Government are not aware of any sufficient grounds for departing from the usual practice in regard to the payment of this loan.
