HC Deb 15 May 1912 vol 38 c1237W
Mr. HACKETT

asked the Chief Secretary the cause of the delay in holding a local inquiry under the Labourers Act in Thurles Rural District; whether he is aware that unless the inquiry is held immediately the council will be unable to have the cottages built and completed before next winter; and whether he will recommend the Local Government Board to immediately appoint an inspector and fix a date for the local inquiry?

Mr. BIRRELL

The scheme in question has not yet been lodged with the Local Government Board, and the Board are therefore unable to say when an inquiry can be held.
