HC Deb 06 June 1905 vol 147 c864
MR. VINCENT KENNEDY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that, of the sixteen cases of indecent assault in Ireland between 1st December, 1904, and 19th April. 1905, eight took place in the province of Ulster; and whether he can state in how many of the eight cases convictions were obtained.

MR. WALTER LONG

The fact is as stated. In five out of the eight cases in Ulster convictions were had, and in the three remaining cases the accused are awaiting trial.
