HC Deb 13 July 1903 vol 125 c395
MR. FLYNN (Cork, N)

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the constabulary authorities are aware of the fact that a farmer, Mr. Daniel Buckley, Cloverhill, was summoned at Mallow Petty Sessions, on 29th June last, for neglecting to have his name on a market cart, and fined, together with costs placed on him; and whether, in view of the custom of the police to caution an individual before proceeding with a summons, he will state whether the requirement of marking all carts and vehicles is enforced by the constabulary irrespective of class or position.

(Answered by Mr. Wyndham.) The prosecution referred to was one of a number instituted at the same petty sessions for the same breach of the law. The Inspector-General has no reason to believe that the requirements of the law in this respect are not impartially carried out by the police.
