HC Deb 13 February 1913 vol 48 cc1188-9
80. Mr. F. HALL

asked the First Lord if he has received a resolution from the Freemount Division of the Hibernian Order as to the urgent necessity for proceeding with the scheme of the proposed Cause- way from Paddy's Block, Ringaskiddy, to Haulbowline; if he will state what particular interest the Hibernian Order has in this proposal; the nature of its urgency; the date when the decision to carry out the work was come to; the purpose of the works; and the reasons for the delay to which this organisation has found it necessary to call attention?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the ADMIRALTY (Dr. Macnamara)

The resolution referred to by the hon. Member does not appear to have been received. The question of building a bridge between Paddy's Block and Haul-bowline has been before the Admiralty from time to time, and I hope to examine the subject personally when I visit Haul-bowline to hear petitions, but I cannot give any undertaking in the matter.

Mr. F. HALL

Would the right hon. Gentleman like me to bring the resolution under his notice?

Dr. MACNAMARA

Yes. I should be glad to see it.
