§ MR. D. MACALEESE (Monagban, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, if he is aware that a large proportion of the dwelling-houses in the town of Clones, in county Monaghan, are deficient in ordinary sanitary arrangements and accommodation, and generally unfit for human habitation; and will he send an inspector of the Local Government Board to investigate and report upon this matter, so that in the not unlikely event of the town being visited by an epidemic the officers of health may have a chance of successfully combating the disease?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURThe Local Government Board have received no complaints in this matter, but they have instructed their Medical Inspector to visit Clones and report to them as to the general sanitary condition of the town.
