§ MR. E. M'HUGH (Armagh, S.)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that, under the new arrangements, the rate for horses from Dundalk to Lincoln has been increased from £1 4s. 6d. to £1 13s. per head; is he aware that the said increase of rate upon nine horses, with the stop- 805 page of free passes, has made a difference of £10 16s. extra to be paid; and if he will ask the conveying Companies to revert to the old rates?
MR. MUNDELLThe Board are in communication with the Company, and a copy of their reply when received shall be sent to the hon. Member.
