HC Deb 03 June 1902 vol 108 c1279
MR MACVEAGH

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, whether he is now prepared to discontinue the Returns of Agrarian Crime in Ireland periodically issued for Ireland.

MR. WYNDHAM

No, Sir.

MR. MACVEAGH

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Home Secretary has refused to issue a similar Return for England? What is the object of issuing one for Ireland?

MR. WYNDHAM

These Returns have been published for a great many years, and it has never been contemplated to discontinue them.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

Will the right hon. Gentleman add a schedule showing how many of the crimes were manufactured by the Royal Irish Constabulary?

* MR. SPEAKER

Order, order! The Question on the Paper has been answered fully.
