HC Deb 18 March 1897 vol 47 cc917-8
MR. D. MACALEESE (Monaghan, N.)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland how many voters are on the burgess roll of Aughnacloy; when was this roll last revised, and by whom; how many names then on the roll were disqualified and struck off, and how many claimants were admitted to the municipal franchise; where did the revising officer hold his court, and was any public notice given of the date of its sitting; and when will the next court for the revision of this burgess roll be held?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. J. ATKINSON,) Londonderry, N.

There are 72 names on the list of voters for Aughnacloy. The list was revised on the 24th September last by the town clerk. Nine names were struck off at the revision and twelve claimants admitted. The revision was conducted in the office of the town commissioners. No notice of the date of revision was given, as none is required by statute. The next revision will be held in September 1897.
