HC Deb 14 July 1896 vol 42 c1431
MR. J. P. FARRELL (Cavan, W.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury what steps, if any, have been taken to put the Commissioners of Works in Ireland in motion regarding the complaints made as to the want of facilities for traffic on the Royal Canal; and, whether he will have an Inquiry ordered into the complaints as to the depth of water in the canal, and its choked up state for want of weeding and proper attention?

MR. HANBURY

The Treasury are awaiting a Report from the Commissioners of Works on this subject. When it is received, they will consider if any, and what, action should be taken.
