§ MR. CHARLES DEVLINI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the closing of the entrance to the docks at Galway by the accumulation of sand and the consequent loss to business and interference with shipping, he can say when a dredger will be available and lent to the Harbour Board of Galway.
§ MR. ATKINSON (for Mr. WYNDHAM)The Commissioners of Public Works have, at present, no dredger which could be placed at the disposal of the Harbour Board, on loan or hire. On the subject of the provision of a dredger. I would refer to the reply given on the 28th March† by my right hon. friend the Chief Secretary to a Question addressed to him by the hon. Member for South Kerry. To that reply I have nothing to add.
