§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELL (Kerry, W.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will grant the Return relating to Administrative Boards in Ireland standing on to-day's Notice Paper in the name of the hon. Member for West Kerry.†
†Administrative Hoards (Ireland). Return setting out the various Boards which control Irish government, giving the members of each Board; the duties they have to perform; the annual amount of public funds administered by each; the total number of meetings of each Board held last year, with attendances of each member; the total amount of salaries, expenses, and other allowances paid to the officials in each Board; the annual expenses and allowances, etc., paid to the members of each Board; the direct control exercised by Parliament over each Board. 706 (Answered by Mr. Bryce.) I am considering the question whether some such Return as the hon. Member desires can be granted, though it could not in any case be the precise Return which he has put on the Paper. I would ask him to defer his Motion for a time.
