§ MR. O'SHAUGHNESSYI beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer if he can say when he intends to introduce the measure amending the Public Works Loans Act to enable the district councils in Ireland that borrowed money to put the Labourers (Ireland) Act in force previous to the passing of the Act of 1906, to pay back the amount of the outstanding loans on the same terms as acquired by the district councils in Ireland under the 1906 Act.
§ MR. ASQUITHI hope to be able to introduce a clause dealing with this matter in the Public Works Loans Bill of this year.
