HC Deb 25 April 1901 vol 92 c1335
MR. MURNAGHAN

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if his attention has been called to a resolution passed by the Guardians of the Lurgan Union, requesting the Government to take steps to have the periodical flooding of lands round Lough Neagh abated; as the loss of crop in this district is great, besides the health of the inhabitants living in flooded areas is seriously endangered; and will he consider the matter with a view to the removal of this danger to the health and property of the district.

MR. WYNDHAM

This proposal would entail legislation and a large grant of public money. It cannot, accordingly, be entertained.
