§ MR. J. P. FARRELL (Longford, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether any interim Report has been made, or will be called for, from the Commission on 1636 Drainage; and, if so, when it may be expected.
MR. BRYCEThe Commissioners do not propose to present an interim Report, but they anticipate that they will be able to furnish their complete Report by the close of the present year. It does not appear that the object for which the I Commission was appointed would be furthered in any way by the presentation of an interim Report.
