HC Deb 06 March 1896 vol 38 cc352-3
DR. TANNER (Cork Co., Mid)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been directed to the two proposed light railways in the Mid Cork division of the county of Cork, one line of railway being an extension of the Cork and Macroom Railway to Ballyvourney, and the other by the same company to Inchegeela; and whether the Government, having considered the question, will give any special facilities to the proposed lines?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. GERALD BALFOUR, Leeds,) Central

The case of these proposed lines of railway will be considered with that of others. More than this I cannot at present say.
