HC Deb 10 February 1915 vol 69 c590W
Mr. GINNELL

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland if he will state the estimate of expenditure for 1914–15 and for 1915–16, respectively, made by each of the local councils and other bodies spending public money in Ireland; the increase or diminution in each case; and the net aggregate increase in the whole of Ireland for the latter financial year?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estimates for the year 1915–16 will not be available for some months, and I am accordingly unable to give the comparative figures asked for by the hon. Member.
