I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland under what order the Local Government Board have decided that a district councillor who takes a labourer's cottage from the guardians becomes disqualified; and is a landlord who makes a letting to the guardians also disqualified.

The decision referred to in the first paragraph is based on the provisions contained in Section 12, Sub-section 4 (e) of the Application of Enactments Order, 1898. As regards the second paragraph, the reply would he determined by the kind of letting to the guardians.
