§ MR. DILLON (Mayo, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland when the Report of the Lord-Lieutenant on the Development Grant will be laid upon the Table.
§ MR. WALTER LONGThe Report for 1904–5 is now under consideration, and will be laid on the Table in the course of a few days.
§ MR. JOHN REDMOND (Waterford)Does the right hon. Gentleman propose to submit a revised Estimate of the Irish Development Grant.
§ MR. WALTER LONGYes.
§ MR. JOHN REDMONDWhat is the cause of the delay in submitting it?
§ MR. WALTER LONGI am afraid the reason is to be found in the necessity of examining the Estimates personally. I am dealing with each application as rapidly as I can.
§ MR. JOHN REDMONDWill the right hon. Gentleman use his influence with the Prime Minister to give us a day for the discussion of the revised Estimate?
§ MR. WALTER LONGI will do my best to secure an adequate opportunity.
§ MR. JOHN REDMONDI do not mean an ordinary Irish Supply day, but a special day.
