HC Deb 13 December 1906 vol 167 c685
MR. DOLAN

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that Mr. George Hewson, J.P., estate agent, Dromahair, is a candidate for the position of inspector under The Labourers (Ireland) Act, 1906; and, seeing that the Local Government Board are aware that Mr. Hewson's appointment would be unpopular in the county of Leitrim, whether he will consider the advisability of appointing some other person.

MR. BRYCE

I have no information as to whether the gentleman named is likely to be a candidate.
