HC Deb 10 June 1895 vol 34 c768
MR. MICHAEL AUSTIN (Limerick, W.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, whether the Petty Sessions' Clerk of Newcastle West and Drumcollogher, County Limerick, will be continued in those positions, serious complaints having been made from time to time for neglect of duty, and also his suspension in 1890 and 1891 for grave offences?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. JOHN MORLEY, New-castle-upon-Tyne)

I have made inquiry into the antecedents of this man, and find they are extremely unsatisfactory. If he is again reported His Excellency will certainly take the gravest notice of his conduct.
