HC Deb 28 June 1921 vol 143 cc1976-7
Mr. DEVLIN

(by Private Notice) asked the Chief Secretary whether he is prepared to make any statement to the House regarding the action of Ulster special constables in firing upon military near Fivemiletown, County Fermanagh; whether it is a fact that some of the military, including an officer, were killed and wounded; and what action, if any, he proposes to take in the matter?

Sir H. GREENWOOD

I am having inquiries made, and I regret that I have received no report up to the present time.

Mr. DEVLIN

Does the right hon. Gentleman not get the information as rapidly as the newspapers?

Sir H. GREENWOOD

Sometimes some newspapers get information which is based on nothing.

Mr. DEVLIN

Does that refer to the "Weekly Summary"?
