§ MR. JAMES O'CONNOR (Wicklow, W.)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury it he will signalise Her Majesty's visit to Ireland by introducing, during the present session, a Bill to repeal the Irish Coercion Act of 1887.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURNo part of Ireland is at present proclaimed under the Crimes Act, as the House and hon. Members are perhaps aware.
§ MR. JAMES O'CONNORIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Crimes Act does exist, and is at the disposal of the Lord Lieutenant?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURThat is true.
§ MR. JAMES O'CONNORAnd that's the point of my question.
