HC Deb 16 June 1915 vol 72 cc652-3
18. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War what quantity of the arms and ammunition privately imported into Ulster in 1913 and 1914 have been placed at the disposal of His Majesty's Government for the purposes of the War; by whose authority and for what purpose stores of arms and ammunition are kept in the mansions of certain landlords in Ulster; and what action the Army Council propose to take regarding them?

Mr. TENNANT

No arms and ammunition purporting to have been imported into Ulster during the period mentioned have been placed at the disposal of the War Office. I have no information on the second part of the question, and I am not aware that any action is called for.

Mr. GINNELL

Will the right hon. Gentleman seek information?

Mr. TENNANT

Of course, I am always open to receive information.
