§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELLTo ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Royal Irish Constabulary authorities have received a communication from the Tralee Urban Council in reference to the necessity of connecting the Tralee police barracks with the local telephone system; whether the constabulary authorities, if such a connection were established, would be prepared to pay the annual rent; and, if so, will he take steps to have this connection established.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Inspector General informs me that he has received from the Tralee Urban Council a communication to the effect stated, but is unable to adopt the suggestion of the council. No provision for such expenditure is made in the Vote for the Constabulary.
