HC Deb 27 July 1896 vol 43 c681
MR. JAMES DALY (Monaghan, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, is he aware that a presentment passed at a special road sessions for the construction of a ditch or fence in the townland of Garry-duff, county Monaghan, is actually being carried out in the different townland of Cargabawn; will he state by what authority has this change been made, and whether it is legal to change a contract in this way from one townland to another?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

A presentment was passed for certain alterations to a road in the townland of Garryduff. No departure from the terms of the presentment has been authorised by the grand jury, or county surveyor, nor would any work except that approved be accepted from the contractor in discharge of his contract.
