§ MR. CULLINAN (Tipperary, S.)To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware that disorder has been caused in the streets of 200 Liverpool by a body known as Wiseites who, at their meetings, used provocative language towards a section of their fellow citizens; and whether, seeing that on the 25th April Chief Superintendent Smith and some of his officers and men were assaulted, and that a committee of the city council has given permission to this body to hold meetings in Lime and William Brown Streets, he will take steps to prevent a recurrence of disorder.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Akers-Douglas.) The preservation of order in the streets of Liverpool is a matter for the local authorities, and I have no reason to suppose that they are showing any remissness in dealing with it.
