§ MR. FFRENCH (Wexford, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that, at an inquiry recently held in Wexford regarding the proposed erection of labourers' cottages by the Wexford Rural District Council, 15 representations were rejected by the Local Government Inspector; and, having regard to the condition of the 15 labourers for whom the cottages were 53 intended, will he state on what grounds the 15 representations were rejected.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThey were rejected either on the ground that the sites were unsuitable, or that insufficient evidence was given of the necessity for the cottages. It is open to the Council to include these applications in a fresh scheme, and if there are no objections on the ground of site or evidence they would be approved.
