HC Deb 01 March 1901 vol 90 cc195-6
MR. J. P. FARRELL

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that every railway station in Ireland is in charge of a train constable, whose duty it is to take notes of arrivals and departures of persons by train, particularly those prominently engaged in Irish political life; how long this system has been in operation; and whether it is proposed to continue it.

MR. WYNDHAM

The lion. Gentleman has, I think, been misinformed. The statements in the question are devoid of foundation.

MR. J. P. FARRELL

I have not been misinformed. I know it from personal observation.
