HC Deb 17 April 1896 vol 39 cc1166-7
MR. T. D. SULLIVAN (Donegal, W.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, if he can say at what time the Bill for the construction of Light Railways in Ireland is likely to be introduced; and, whether a decision has been come to by the Government as to the route to be adopted for a Light Railway in the Western Division of Donegal?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

I am not yet in a position to fix a date for the introduction of this Bill. Before introducing it I wish to have the advantage of the advice of the new Chairman of the Board of Works in respect to certain provisions of the Bill.
