§ MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the committee of the Kerry County Council have repeatedly during the past five years recommended a grant of £80 to the Technical School, Presentation Convent, Cahirciveen; and can he state for what reason the Department of Agriculture has refused To sanction this grant.
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. WALTER LONG, Bristol, S.)The Department declined to sanction a grant for the equipment of a hosiery industry in this institution because they were of opinion that the capitation grant of £2 per head, payable under the county council scheme of technical instruction, would afford adequate aid.
