§ MR. O'MARA (Kilkenny, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the New Ross Petty Sessions District is largely made up of a portion of county Kilkenny, and whether the Lord Chancellor will consider the advisability of appointing at least one Nationalist magistrate resident in county Kilkenny.
§ MR. WYNDHAMI have no knowledge of the fact stated in the first part of the question, and in reply to the second part I can only say that the Lieutenant of the county and the Lord Chancellor are always prepared to consider the names of any suitable gentleman recommended for appointment to the commission of the peace.
