HC Deb 02 August 1916 vol 85 c305
51. Mr. BYRNE

asked the Prime Minister whether he is aware of the indignation in Dublin caused by the suggested continuance of coercion in Ireland; and if he will cause martial law and the Coercion Act to be withdrawn?

The PRIME MINISTER

This question will receive, I have no doubt, the immediate consideration of the new Chief Secretary.
