HC Deb 25 May 1909 vol 5 c1151W
Mr. DEVLIN

asked the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture (Ireland) whether any representations have been made to the Department with regard to the establishment of a central flax market in Ulster; and what action, if any, the Department is taking in the matter?

Mr. T. W. RUSSELL

The Department are aware that a suggestion has been made for the establishment of a central flax market in Belfast to serve flax growers in the vicinity of that city, but they have not, up to the present, taken any action in the matter.
