HC Deb 30 May 1916 vol 82 c2542
45. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Prime Minister whether there are any but political reasons for the present discrimination between different sections of the Irish people alleged to be connected with the illegal acquisition and possession of arms and military enterprise; and whether anything will be done to inspire confidence in the impartiality of the law by dealing in precisely the same manner, irrespective of politics, with all involved in illegalities of this nature in Ireland within the last three years?

The PRIME MINISTER

I would refer the hon. Member to the general statement I made last Thursday, to which I can at present add nothing.
