HC Deb 13 May 1912 vol 38 c918W
Mr. HAYDEN

asked whether any of the Members for Irish constituencies occupy the position of Crown Prosecutor or other post under the Government; and, if so, whether he will give the names and other particulars?

Mr. BIRRELL

The hon. Members for South Londonderry, North Fermanagh and South Tyrone act as Crown counsel for the Attorney-General at Assizes in certain counties. They are paid by fees for each case in which they are instructed to appear. The only other Irish Member holding any paid office or employment under the Government is the Member for North Tyrone.
