HC Deb 15 May 1922 vol 154 cc64-5W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the fact that many property owners in Ireland have, since the truce of July, 1921, been rendered homeless and destitute by armed bands of lawless men, the Government will place at the disposal of the Chief Secretary for Ireland a sum of money to alleviate cases of urgent distress, which sum should be ultimately recoverable from the Irish Free State Government?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I would refer my Noble Friend to the reply which I gave to-day to a question by my hon. Friend the Member for Kensington South (Sir W. Davison).
