HC Deb 19 October 1909 vol 12 c131
Mr. BOLAND

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether the Congested Districts Board will make inquiry into the application made on behalf of the school children attending Dirien school, Greenane, Kenmare, for assistance in providing a footbridge over the river, as, owing to the winter floods, the river cannot be forded; and, if inquiry has already been made, can he state the result of such inquiry?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND (Mr. Cherry)

The Congested Districts Board have received the application referred to, but are unable to entertain it, as the persons for whom the bridge is desired do not reside in a congested district.
