§ Mr. GINNELLasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he has noticed that in the most important Divisions in this House on the Irish Land Bill on the 9th and 23rd July every Irish Member in the House voted against the Government, except one Member, who is in receipt of a salary; and whether he proposes at a later stage of the Bill to make any concession on the question at issue to this unanimity of Irish opinion constitutionally expressed?
§ The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND (Mr. Cherry)The facts as to the Divisions are not quite correctly stated by the hon. Member, but it has not escaped the notice of my right hon. Friend that the greater number of Irish Members in the House voted against the Government on the occasions referred to. At present he has not any observations to make on the subject.
