HC Deb 30 May 1907 vol 175 cc89-90
MR. LONSDALE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will grant the Return standing in the name of the Member for Mid Armagh on the Paper to-day, †

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. Birrell, Bristol, N.)

I cannot see that any useful purpose would be served by giving the Return in Question. I am not aware of any precedent for inquiring as to the amount of rates which may be paid by members of local bodies or any other class.
