HC Deb 10 December 1902 vol 116 c664
MR. TULLY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state how many of the 184 officials of the United Irish League, who are in possession of evicted farms and eleven months grazing lands, have been prosecuted under The Criminal Law and Procedure (Ireland) Act, 1887, during the past eighteen months for unlawful assembly, conspiracy, boycotting, and intimidation; and what has been the result of these prosecutions.

MR. WYNDHAM

No such proceedings, so far as I have been able to discover, were instituted against any of these persons.

MR. TULLY

Why was there no prosecution? Was it because they are impostors, like their leaders?

[No answer was returned.]
