§ Mr. P. WHITEasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that a Commission on Waterways which reported in 1909 recommended that a State grant be made to develop the Boyne Canal; if any action has been taken on that Report; and, if not, whether when the War is over it will be favourably considered?
§ Mr. ACLANDThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, and to the second in the negative. I am afraid that I am not in a position to give the undertaking suggested in the third part.
