HC Deb 26 May 1909 vol 5 c1361W
Mr. VINCENT KENNEDY

asked the Chief Secretary if he will say whether he has received a resolution from Blacklion, county Cavan, asking that Enniskillen (No. 2) Rural District Council be scheduled as a congested district; is he aware that the evidence from this district taken by the recent Commission on Congestion bears out the prayer of the resolution; and will this matter have his consideration?

Mr. CHERRY

The Chief Secretary has- received the resolution, which is to the effect stated in the question. No new district can be placed under the Congested Districts Board except by legislation, and the Royal Commission on Congestion, who heard the evidence referred to, did not recommend that any portion of the county of Cavan should be scheduled as congested.
