§ DR. TANNERI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been directed to the extraordinary number of police now stationed in Millstreet, County Cork; and, whether, the peaceful condition of the district being considered, a material reduction in the numbers of constabulary may now be made?
MR.J. MORLEYThe number of police now stationed at Millstreet is 17, which, I am informed, is below the former strength. The area comprised in the district is unusually large, and contains 50 townlands. An adjoining sub-district was broken up in July 1892, and most of it was merged in the Mill-street sub-district. The Constabulary Authorities are of opinion that the strength of the force at Millstreet cannot at present be reduced.
