§ 50. Mr. GINNELLasked the Prime Minister whether it was with the sanction of the Government that the military rulers 1493 of Ireland after the insurrection prevented for three weeks the publication in any newspaper or otherwise of. an appeal for subscriptions for the Irish Volunteer Dependants' Fund; what provision was made for obviating the suffering thus caused before any other fund was opened from which those sufferers could consistently accept relief; whether it was consideration for the opinion of neutral countries, especially America, that caused the nominal withdrawal of the military prohibition; and whether the Censor now prevents the fact being communicated to those neutral countries that collections for the Irish Volunteer Dependants' Fund are now being prevented throughout Ireland?
§ Mr. FORSTERA report on the statements and allegations contained in this question have been called for.
