HC Deb 05 July 1904 vol 137 cc648-9
MR. JOYCE (Limerick)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will grant a Return dealing with officials employed by the various county boroughs in Ireland in carrying out the provisions of the Technical Instruction Act.

ME. WYNDHAM

I am prepared to give a Return in the form proposed, with the exception of the information indicated in Columns 3 and 8. For the reasons already explained, I cannot consent to this information.

Appended is the Return asked for.

Technical Instruction (Ireland) (Officials). Return of Officials employed upon the 1st day of June, 1904, by the various County Boroughs and Urban Councils in Ireland in carrying out the provisions of the Technical Instruction (Ireland) Act, in the following form:—

Department of Agriculture now propose to utilise the £10,000 set aside for the enlargement and improvement of the Munster Dairy School; and what is the reason for the delay in carrying out these improvements for which money was granted under the Act of 1889.

MR. WYNDHAM

The hon. Member does not appear to have seen my reply to the similar Question of 4th May by the hon. Member for North Cork.† I have no further statement to make at present.
