HC Deb 30 May 1895 vol 34 cc647-8
MR. JASPER TULLY (Leitrim, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant whether he has received a Resolution from the Mohill Board of Guardians, praying that they may be enabled to obtain as a loan from the Board of Works a sum varying from £100 to £300, for the purpose of supplying to the farmers of the union spraying machines for the protection of their potato crops, the loan to be repaid on the same terms as the Seeds Loan; and, whether he can state what steps will be taken with regard to this request?

MR. JOHN MORLEY

I regret I have nothing to add to the reply which I gave to the question addressed to me on this point by the hon. Member for Cork on the 16th instant.

MR. BARTLEY

I should like to ask the right hon. Gentleman whether he can find another sum for the English farmers who are in the same condition?

[No, answer was given].
