HC Deb 19 June 1894 vol 25 cc1465-6
MR. CLANCY (Dublin Co., N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland what is the reason of the delay in building the labourers' cottages in the Garristown (County Dublin) district of the Dunshaughlin Union, on the erection of which the Board of Guardians of that Union resolved six months ago?

MR. J. MORLEY

As the result of an inquiry held by an Inspector of the Local Government Board, the Guardians of the Dunshaughlin Union were informed in February last that the Board were prepared to make a Provisional Order for the erection of 55 labourers' cottages in the Union. Five of these are to be in the Garristown Electoral Division. The Provisional Order has not yet been signed owing to the requisite consents to certain alterations of the sites selected not having yet been furnished. The matter is, however, likely to be settled very soon now. The Board's Provisional Order must deal with the Guardians' scheme as a whole, with the result that the cottages in Garristown and other parts of the Union, respecting which no questions arise, have to be delayed until the matters referred to are disposed of.
