§ MR. W. REDMONDI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Government will make any effort to improve the River at Scariff, so as to make navigation more safe there?
§ SIR J. T. HIBBERTI am afraid that I am not at present in a position to modify, or add anything to, the answer which I gave to a similar question put by the hon. Member on Thursday last, although the Government are sensible that some improvement may be desirable.
§ MR. W. REDMONDIs it not possible for the Government to do something considering the strong feeling that exists? The dangerous state of this river is not calculated to improve trade.
§ SIR J. T. HIBBERTWe are considering whether some steps cannot be taken to improve the river when funds are available.
