HC Deb 17 March 1902 vol 105 c175
MR. SAMUEL YOUNG (Cavan, E.)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether he can state what body was responsible for the building of the lighthouse on Rock Angus at the entrance of Strangford Lough; what was the cost, and out of what fund was the expense paid.

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

I am informed by the Commissioners of Irish Lights that the lighthouse on Rock Angus was commenced by the old Dublin Ballast Board and completed by the Commissioners. The actual cost cannot now be ascertained. The expense was, I understand, paid partly out of the funds of the old Board and partly out of the Mercantile Marine Fund.
