§ MR. LONSDALEI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been called to the Resolution passed by the Dublin Corporation on July 6th reiterating their determination not to allow Mr. Drury, the Local Government Board auditor, access to their books, notwithstanding the order of the Court of King's Bench; and what steps he proposes to take in the matter.
MR. BRYCEI have no knowledge of the Resolution referred to beyond what I have gathered from the newspapers. The matter is before the Courts, and I do not, as at present advised, see that any steps on the part of the Executive Government are called for.
