§ MR. STAVELEY-HILLTo ask the Chief Secretary to the (Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, if he can state the number of policemen who have received injuries since 30th June, 1907, in connection with cases of cattle-driving.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Inspector-General of the Royal Irish Constabulary informs me that six policemen have been injured in connection with cases of cattle-driving. The number of such cases was three, the police in each case consisting of a patrol of two men. In two of the cases the injury to the police was not serious; in the third case, the two policemen were severely beaten.
