HC Deb 13 August 1913 vol 56 c2522W
Mr. O'DONNELL

asked the Chief Secretary what steps have been taken to improve the pier at Dingle, county Kerry; whether a promise was made a considerable time ago to a representative deputation that this work, which is most essential in the interests of the fishing industry of the district, would be dealt with by the Development Commissioners; whether that body has been approached; and, if so, what reply have they given?

Mr. BIRRELL

Application has been made by the Congested Districts Board to the Development Commissioners for a Grant towards harbour improvements at Dingle. The Commissioners have promised to consider a scheme of improvement if the Congested Districts Board, the Board of Works, and the local authority, who are now in correspondence on the subject, can agree on one.
