HC Deb 26 November 1928 vol 223 cc22-3
22. Sir WILLIAM DAVISON

asked the Secretary of State- for Dominion Affairs the number of claims of Southern Irish Loyalists in respect of loss and damage to person and property which have still to be disposed of by the Irish Grants Committee; when it is expected that the hearing of these claims will be completed; and whether the outstanding balance still due to those who have already had their claims heard and settled will now be paid?

28. Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs what cases have not yet been heard by the Irish Grants Committee, and when it is anticipated that the committee will have completed its hearings?

Mr. AMERY

The points raised are dealt with in the replies which I gave to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Chelmsford (Colonel Howard-Bury) on the 12th November, and my hon. Friend the Member for Newcastle North (Sir N. Grattan-Doyle) on the 21st November, to which I am not at present able to add anything.

Sir W. DAVISON

Cannot the right hon. Gentleman say how many claims are outstanding?

Mr. AMERY

No, Sir, I cannot answer that question at the present time.
