HC Deb 21 July 1893 vol 15 c196
MR. FIELD () Dublin, St. Patrick's

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the want of co-operation between the Board of Works arbitrator, the Solicitor to the Macroom Guardians, and the Board itself, has been the cause of great delay in the erection of 100 labourers' cottages, under Scheme No. 3, adopted about February, 1889; and whether the Government will take immediate measures during the fine season to have this much-needed housing accommodation provided for the labourers before next winter?

MR. J. MORLEY

I understand that the award of the arbitrator was lodged on the 17th instant, and that it will be forthwith completed as soon as certain difficulties in the matter of a non-compliance with certain statutory provisions in regard to some sites for cottages have been removed.
