§ 48. Mr. R. MCNEILLasked the Prime Minister whether he is still unwilling to make amends to Mr. Harrel for his dismissal from the post of Assistant Commissioner of Police in Dublin by the late Chief Secretary, in view of the Report of the Royal Commission on the rebellion in Ireland, from which it appears that the dismissal of Mr. Harrel was one of the events which led to the rebellion, the chief responsibility for which is attributed to the late Chief Secretary, who dismissed him?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am afraid I can add nothing to the answers I gave my hon. Friend on the 27th June on this matter.
§ Mr. McNEILLWill the right hon. Gentleman make the decision known to the House as soon as possible?
Mr. HEALYWas not Mr. Harrel given as compensation a very important and lucrative post in the Admiralty?
§ Sir E. CARSONThat is only a temporary post.
§ Mr. PRINGLEWas this gentleman dismissed owing to the finding of the Royal Commission?
§ The PRIME MINISTERHis conduct was censored.
