§ Mr. SLOANasked the President of the Board of Trade if he can state the cause of delay in the erection of a seaman's waiting room at Belfast; and when it is hoped to begin operations?
§ Mr. H. J. TENNANTThe delay has been caused by the difficulty of finding a suitable position for this waiting room, and the plans were not completed until after the Estimates for the present year were settled. It is expected that the work will be carried out during the next financial year.
