CAPTAIN CRAIGI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Local Government Board have yet instituted proceedings against Mr. Cawley for illegally acting and voting as a county councillor on the Sligo County Council; and, if so, with what result.
MR. BIREELLThe reply is in the negative. The Sligo County Council have full power to exclude Mr. Cawley from participation in their proceedings, and if they should fail to do so it is open to any ratepayer to take action in the matter.
