HC Deb 20 April 1910 vol 16 c2267W
Mr. GINNELL

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland if he will state the amounts paid for printing and advertising in each of the two last completed financial years by the Westmeath County Council and by the Mullingar, Delvin, and Coole district councils?

Mr. BIRRELL

I am not in a position to reply to this question. The Local Government Board have not got the information, and the searches necessary to obtain it would occupy a good deal of the time of the officers of the four councils mentioned in the question, at the very busiest time of the year.
