HC Deb 04 May 1897 vol 48 c1525
* MR. J. P. FARRELL

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury if he can now state whether the Government will give facilities for the passage of the Canals and Navigable Rivers (Ireland) Amendment Bill at present before the House?

MR. HANBURY

A Report was received yesterday from the Board of Works on this Bill, so far as it might affect canals and navigations in their charge. This Report will be at once communicated to the Board of Trade, within whose province the matter lies.
