HC Deb 23 October 1899 vol 77 c504
DR. ROBERT AMBROSE (Mayo, W.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been called to a resolution of the Castlebar District Council, dated 10th October, in which it is stated that there are numbers of people living on small holdings of worn out and unproductive land, and seeing that the Congested Districts Board cannot relieve those people unless the districts in which they live are scheduled as congested districts, he will see that the whole county of Mayo is so scheduled.

MR. G. W. BALFOUR

The resolution referred to has been received, but legislation would be necessary to give effect to it.
