HC Deb 03 February 1902 vol 102 c193
MR. FFRENCH (Wexford, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that overcrowding prevails in the borough of Wexford; and seeing that the Wexford Corporation have, up to the present, been unable to procure sufficient land for building purposes, whether he will take steps to enable the Corporation to take land outside the town compulsorily as sites for artizans' and labourers' dwellings.

MR. WYNDHAM

The Corporation can obtain powers to take lands outside the borough by means of a Provisional Order.
