HC Deb 30 November 1908 vol 197 cc1095-6
MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord- Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that an inspection has been made by the Congested Districts Board of the proposed road between Cahersivane and Clogvoola, near Waterville, County Kerry; and can he state when the Board will be prepared to construct this road.

MR. BIRRELL

The proposed road was inspected in September, 1907, by the engineer of the Congested Districts Board, who reported that only seven families would derive much benefit from it, and that it would probably cost considerably more than £600. The Board decided in December last that, if the county authorities agreed to undertake the work, they would consider what contribution they could make. They are not prepared to construct the road themselves.
