HC Deb 20 February 1905 vol 141 cc614-5
MR. SLOAN (Belfast, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will explain why the position of constabulary doctor, recently vacant in one of the divisions of Belfast, has not been filled in the usual manner; and if he will give the names of the doctors to whom the work has been allocated.

MR. WYNDHAM

It was not considered necessary to fill the vacancy, and the work hitherto done by five doctors is now done by four—Dr. O"Connell, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Maguire and Dr. O"Brien. † See page 322.

MR. SLOAN

But which doctors have to do the extra work?

MR. WYNDHAM

I cannot say.
