HC Deb 23 June 1921 vol 143 c1564W
Mr. LYLE-SAMUEL

asked the Chief Secretary whether he is aware that, previous to the destruction of the 20 houses at Ballylongford, County Kerry, on the 23rd February, two auxiliary police were ambushed in the neighbourhood; that a large party of police arrived later in motor lorries, and immediately after this the burning of the houses occurred: and whether it is supposed that this destruction was carried out by the inhabitants?

Mr. HENRY

I have nothing to add to the reply given to a similar question asked by the hon. Member last Thursday.
