§ MR. J. DEVLINI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can now state when the Report of the Congested Districts Commission will be issued.
§ MR. BIRRELLI am informed that the Report was signed a week ago, but its presentation has been delayed at the instance of some of the Commissioners, who wished to put in supplementary notes. These have now been received, and the Report is accordingly being forwarded to my right hon. friend the Secretary of State for the Home Department for presentation to Parliament.
