HC Deb 03 July 1913 vol 54 cc2172-3
6. Captain CRAIG

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether lie can now state if those members of the Bar who stood as Liberal or Nationalist candidates. at the last General Election and, as revising barristers, revised the voters' lists in South Dublin county and in other constituencies at the last revision, are to be reappointed for the coming revision; and, if so, -will they be appointed for the same constituencies as they then revised?

Mr. BIRRELL

I have nothing to add to my previous reply to the lion. Member on this subject. The names of the gentlemen whom it. is proposed to appoint assistant revising barristers for the coming revision have not yet been submitted to me.

Captain CRAIG

I will put the question down again this day week.

Mr. BIRRELL

I am not sure it will be ready then.

Captain CRAIG

I will repeat the question.

Mr. JOYCE

Will the right hon. Gentleman inform us also how many Unionist barristers will be appointed?

Mr. BIRRELL

I cannot say.

Mr. JOYCE

There will be plenty of them.
