§ MR. DALYI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, seeing that recently gentlemen differing politically from the Government have been promoted to be judges in England and Scotland, he can state when the same course will be adopted by the Government in Ireland as that adopted by the Government in England and Scotland in this matter.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI hope that in each of these three kingdoms the appointments made will be the best in the public interest, having regard to all the circumstances of the case.
§ CAPTAIN DONELANIS it not the fact that there is not a single Nationalist on the Irish judicial bench?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI am not aware of that fact.
