HC Deb 13 February 1911 vol 21 cc828-9W
Mr. J. P. FARRELL

asked what action the Government intend to take to provide funds for the payment of expenses incurred by the clerks of the Crown and peace in Ireland for the necessary advertising and printing under the Voters and Jurors Acts in consequence of the refusal of the county councils, acting under legal opinion, to pay for the same in future?

Mr. BIRRELL

I am not aware that the county councils have refused to pay the expenses of clerks of the Crown and peace in connection with the necessary advertising and printing under the Acts referred to by the hon. Member.
