§ MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the fact that the necessity for building a slip or pier at Cooscroum, county Kerry, was brought to his personal knowledge when in that district, and that the local district council has passed a Resolution in favour of the scheme, that there are no facilities for landing afforded to the thirty fishing boats which use the cove, and that, owing to the presence of massive boulders, it is impossible in stormy weather for more than one boat at a time to be hauled up, he will urge upon the Congested Districts Board the necessity of providing landing facilities, or else avail himself of the powers under the Marine Works Act, in conjunction with the Congested Districts Board, to construct a pier.
§ MR. CHERRY (for Mr. LRYCE)On the occasion of my recent visit to the locality, I received a memorial from the fishermen of Cooscroum asking for the 782 construction of a landing place there, and was impressed by the facts therein brought before me. The memorial will be considered by the Congested Districts Board at the next meeting.
