HC Deb 16 May 1905 vol 146 c490
MR. ROCHE (Galway, E.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord - Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will explain why on last week the Reverend Father Dunne, C.C., on being changed by the Bishop of the diocese from the parish of Cappatagle to Ballymackward, had to telegraph to the district inspector for permission for his friends in Cappatagle to accompany him to his new sphere of duty, which is in the neighbouring parish.

MR. WALTER LONG

I am unable to explain why the reverend gentleman telegraphed this inquiry to the district inspector, but the reply given by the latter was what might have been anticipated, namely, that there would be no interference with the band on such an occasion.
