HC Deb 15 May 1911 vol 25 cc1790-1W
Mr. COTTON

asked the Chief Secretary if he is aware that the south pier of the harbour at Bray, county Wicklow, has been carried away by the action of the sea, and if not repaired at once will lead to the destruction of the harbour; and if he will undertake that the Government will carry out the necessary repairs?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I have received no information of any serious damage to the south pier of Bray Harbour. The Board of Works have no jurisdiction over or responsibility in connection with the harbour, which was constructed under the Bray Township Act, 1890, and is vested in the Bray Urban District Council.
