HC Deb 20 February 1919 vol 112 c1119
39. Mr. DONNELLY

asked the Chief Secretary whether he is aware of the seriousflooding that takes place every year in the Lough Neagh drainage district; that such flooding most injuriously affects five counties to an extent of over 25,000 statute acres, resulting in much loss and suffering to the occupiers of the flooded area; and if he will say what steps, if any, the Government proposes to take to remedy the existing state of things?

Mr. SAMUELS

This is one of the many matters which has been brought to the notice of my right hon. Friend the Chief Secretary. He is not yet in a position to make any statement on the subject.
