§ 49. Mr. HORNERasked what provision, if any, does the Government of Ireland Bill contain for the compensation of Civil servants in Ireland who, not being Irish officers as defined by the Bill, or being partly Irish officers and partly not, wish to retire owing to the altered circumstances of position in case the Bill becomes law?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThere is no provision for compensation to Civil servants who are not Irish officers, as their position will not be affected by the Bill. The case of those who are partly Irish officers and partly not is provided for in Clause 36.
