§ MR. MACVEAGH (Down, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that jurors are summoned to the Newry Sessions from the whole of the barony of Iveagh, Lower Half, although two-thirds of that barony is situate in the Downpatrick Sessions District; and whether, in view of the inconvenience caused to the jurors thus summoned, he will take steps to have the practice discontinued.
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. WYNDHAM,) DoverThe Jurors' Book is prepared by the Clerk of the Crown and Peace from lists made by the clerks of unions. Complaints have been made to the effect mentioned in the Question; but the mistakes originate, I understand, in the lists supplied by clerks of unions. The Clerk of the Crown and Peace will personally look into the matter and endeavour to have the defects remedied at the next Revision Sessions in September.
§ Mr. MACVEAGHI think the Jury List is prepared by the Sub-Sheriff and not the Clerk of the Crown and Peace.
