HC Deb 31 October 1912 vol 43 c578W
Mr. SCANLAN

asked whether, in view of the inconvenience caused to litigants and the public in general by having the Assizes for Connaught held in Limerick, arrangements can now be made to hold the Assize Courts for Connaught in Sligo?

Mr. BIRRELL

Following the practice of the past five years, it has been decided to hold the Connaught Winter Assizes this year at Limerick. Many considerations, including the convenience of jurors, have to be taken into account in fixing the place of Assizes and, having regard to the railway facilities for reaching Limerick, I am not aware that any substantial inconvenience will be caused by the holding of the Winter Assizes in that city.
