HC Deb 29 March 1906 vol 154 cc1555-6
* MR. CHARLES McVEIGH (Donegal, E.)

On behalf of the hon. Member for West Donegal, I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether his attention has been called to the resolutions of the Ballinasloe, Donegal, and other district asylum committees, having reference to the cost of maintenance of pauper lunatics; and whether he can see his way to introduce legislation making this charge payable out of Imperial funds.

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

My right hon. friend the Chief Secretary for Ireland has already stated that the Government have no intention of introducing legislation on this matter, and I have nothing to add to that.
