§ MR. HALPIN (Clare, W.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the whole of the exterior and interior stone facings for the College of Science and Art, Dublin, will be of Irish stone.
§ MR. RUNCIMANI have nothing to add to the numerous replies which have been given on this subject.
§ MR. HALPINIs the hon. Gentleman aware that stone quarried in North West Clare is some of the best obtainable? Will he not see that it is used in these buildings?
§ MR. RUNCIMANI have been told that Irish stone is of the highest possible quality, but I cannot undertake to decide as between different classes of Irish stone.
