§ MR. FIELD (Dublin, St. Patrick)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can explain why the Privy Council refused to allow the construction of a tramway from Dublin to Enniskerry, seeing that the application was supported by every public body interested, and was only opposed by the Dublin, Wick-low, and Wexford Railway Company.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThe Council, acting on behalf of the Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway Company, raised the objection that inasmuch as the object of the proposed tramway was to unite places already directly connected by rail the scheme could not be sanctioned 1030 by Order in Council. This objection was upheld by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.
