HC Deb 21 June 1900 vol 84 c637
THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. G. W. BALFOUR,) Leeds, Central

The object of the Bill I have to introduce is to amend certain details in the Local Government (Ireland) Act, 1898, in respect of which difficulties of working have cropped up. No useful purpose would be served by my going into those details, but I hope and believe the Bill will be found to be non-contentious.

Bill to amend Sections 42, 51, 54, 56, 57, 69, 103, 115, and 121 of The Local Government (Ireland) Act, 1898, and Articles 19, 24, and 36 of the Schedule to The Local Government (Application of Enactments) Order, 1898, ordered to be brought in by Mr. Gerald Balfour and Mr. Attorney General for Ireland.
