HC Deb 15 January 1913 vol 46 c2089W
Mr. GUINEY

asked what date the control of the Ballinakilla graveyard was handed over by the Commissioners of Church Temporalities in Ireland to the Kanturk Rural District Council; when the clerk to the Kanturk Council was notified of this change; was the approval of the Commissioners of Church Temporalities in Ireland obtained for the erection of a galvanised shed within the enclosure; and will this building be removed if a request is made to that effect?

Mr. BIRRELL

The burial ground of Ballinakilla was, pursuant to the provisions of the 26th Section of the Irish Church Act, 1869, and the 161st Section of the Public Health (Ireland) Act, 1878, vested by the Irish Church Temporalities Commission in the Burial Board of the Kanturk Union (the rural sanitary authority) by Order dated the 5th August, 1880. The records of the Church Temporalities Commission contain no information as to the galvanised iron shed referred to in the question. The Irish Land Commission as successors to the Church Temporalities Commission has no further control in the matter.
