HC Deb 23 July 1901 vol 97 c1345
MR. MOONEY (Dublin County, S.)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland whether he is aware that resolutions have been unanimously passed by the Dalkey and Killiney urban district councils and by the South Dublin National Registration Association, asking that a revision court should be established in Dalkey; and whether the Lord Lieutenant will be advised by the authorities to provide this convenience for the voters resident in the locality, in view of the fact that suitable premises can be obtained, as Dalkey town hall is used as a polling place at Parliamentary elections.

MR. ATKINSON

The reply to the first paragraph is in the affirmative. The Lord Lieutenant has recently caused careful inquiry to be made as to the working of the present arrangement, and finds that upon the whole there are not sufficient grounds for the change proposed.

MR. FIELD

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the District Council is composed of different sections of politicians who have unanimously asked for this. From whom did the Lord Lieutenant get his information?

MR. ATKINSON

I must ask for notice of that question.
