§ MR. DOOGAN (Tyrone, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will take steps to have the regulation at present in force modified, so that Irish National school teachers who retire from ill-health would legally be entitled to their gratuity from the date of the receipt in the Education Office of their duly-signed form of resignation and all other requisite vouchers?
§ MR. ATKINSONI have to say on behalf of my right honourable Friend that, as this Question only appeared on the Paper for the first time this morning, there has not been time to make the necessary inquiries.
