HC Deb 14 May 1903 vol 122 c678
MR. H. C. RICHARDS

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he will direct further inquiries to be made as to the original ownership of the land upon which the barracks for the Royal Irish Constabulary at Sligo have been built; and if he is aware that the owner of the adjacent lands upon which a further extension has been proposed has beeen informed that no record exists, nor is any title forthcoming of the original acquisition of the land in 1866.

(Answered by Mr. Atkinson.) It is not proposed to make further inquiry on the point referred to. No extension of Sligo Barracks is at present contemplated. The extension contemplated in 1891 was not carried out. The owner of adjacent lands was informed that certain particulars applied for in reference to the acquisition of the site of Sligo Barracks cannot be furnished. † See page 29.
