HC Deb 10 August 1905 vol 151 c956
MR. SLOAN

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he can now state the decision of the Inspector-General regarding the recommendation of the Belfast Corporation that a Royal Irish Constabulary band should be established in Belfast.

MR. WALTER LONG

The question of the formation of a constabulary band in Belfast is engaging my personal consideration, in consultation with the Inspector-General, and I hope it will be found possible to comply with the wishes of the corporation. At the present moment I am not in a position to make any more definite statement in the matter.
