§ MR. COMBE (Surrey, Chertsey)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the head Inspector of the Board of Education in Ireland visited the proposed site of a school house at Clooncan (Union of Castlerea, County Roscommon), on 11th May last; and, if so, what report he had sent as to the desirability of building a school on that townland?
MR. J. MORLEYThe Commissioners of National Education inform me that there was a difficulty in dealing with this case owing to the proximity of the proposed site to an existing vested school, but that under the special circumstances they have now made the required grant for the erection of the school.
§ MR. SEXTON (Kerry, N.)I would ask the right hon. Gentleman whether the reports made by Inspectors under such circumstances as are indicated in the question are open to the inspection of Members of this House?
