HC Deb 16 January 1913 vol 46 c2238
23. Mr. FFRENCH

asked whether the Irish Local Government Board has yet sanctioned the proposal of the Wexford Rural District Council, namely, to borrow money in the open market for the erection of labourers' cottages?

Mr. BIRRELL

No such proposal in relation to the new scheme as is indicated in the question has been submitted to the Local Government Board by this council, but, in any event, the question of sanctioning additional loans cannot arise until after the local inquiry has been held into the scheme.
