HC Deb 20 February 1902 vol 103 c599
MR. O'DOHERTY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Irish Local Government Board have received Resolutions from amongst other public bodies, the Innishowen Rural District Council protesting against the appointment of Mr. Richard Kelly as inspector to hold the inquiry into the proposed change of union boundaries in Counties Donegal and Londonderry; and seeing that these public bodies have asked the Local Government Board to appoint as inspector for the holding of the said inquiry a barrister unconnected with said counties, whether the Local Government Board purpose acceding to the wishes of the districts concerned as expressed in the said Resolutions.

MR. WYNDHAM

The inquiry will not be held until the autumn. That being so it would be premature to make any definite selection of an inspector to hold it.
