§ MR. LONSDALEI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether official shorthand notes were taken of the speeches delivered in Ireland during the recent recess by the hon. Member for South Meath; and, if so, will he state why the reports of such speeches in advocacy of cattle-driving and boycotting were not officially brought to his notice, in addition to the similar speech by the hon. Member for North Longford.
§ MR. BIRRELLShorthand notes were taken of some of the speeches delivered by the hon. Member for South Meath during the recess, but the speeches do not appear to fall within the description of public advocacy of cattle-driving.
