§ MR. MACALEESEI beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade has he seen an extract from the report of the county surveyor of Tyrone upon the condition of the Clogher Valley Tram way, wherein it is stated that a dangerous slackness exists in the guage; that the fish bolts are insecure; that the ballasting is in many places wet and insufficient; and that the line generally is in a very unsatisfactory state; and will any attempt be wade to give the travelling public better security for life and limb on this tramway?
§ MR RITCHIEI have seen the extract from the report of the county surveyor, and the Board of Trade have requested the company to furnish them with observations upon it. I must remind the hon. Member that the responsibility for the condition of the line and the safety of the passengers rests with the company.
