MR. CHARLES MACVEIGH (Donegal, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that if the new by-law passed by the Board of Agriculture with reference to the Donegal Fisheries comes before the Privy Council in Ireland on Appeal, that body must either confirm or reject the by-law altogether and cannot vary it; and whether he will further consult the Board of Agriculture with a view to inducing it so to modify the by-law as to remove the objection taken to it by the people of Donegal.
§ MR. BIRRELLThe by-law in question has already been lodged for the approval of the Lord-Lieutenant in Council, and the matter is, therefore, sub judice.
