§ MR. LONSDALEI beg to ask the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture (Ireland) whether he can name the counties in Ulster in which it is intended to instal new agricultural schools and experimental farms.
§ THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOR IRELAND (Mr. T. W. RUSSELL, Tyrone, S.)The Department have decided to establish an agricultural school for the north-west, and have under consideration a proposal for another in the northeast, of the province of Ulster. The former will be located in County Tyrone. The location of the latter has not yet been decided.
§ MR. LONSDALEWhile I congratulate Tyrone on the prospect of having an institution of this kind, may I ask the 1159 hon. Gentleman to bear in mind the strong desire of Armagh for one?
§ MR. T. W. RUSSELLThe schools are not being established for counties but for districts, and I hope Armagh will be included in one of the districts.
