§ Mr. FFRENCHasked the Chief Secretary whether he has authorised an announcement that £7,000 has been set aside by the Board of Agriculture for the improvement of Fethard Harbour; and has the Board of Agriculture recommended Fethard to the Development Commissioners with a view to have the necessary improvements carried out, and with what result?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI have not authorised any such statement as that referred to in the question. In submitting proposals now under consideration of the Development Commissioners the Department of Agriculture have taken into consideration the circumstances of Fethard as well as those of other districts.
