§ 11. Mr. P. MEEHANasked the Home Secretary if he is aware that twenty-eight men who were working at the Rahendoran Lime Works, Queen's County, have been thrown out of employment since 29th April, 1916, owing to the proprietor of the works, Mr. James Connor, who had no connection with the rising, being shot in Stephen's Green, Dublin, when driving through in a motor on Easter Monday; and whether these men, who have families dependent on them, will be compensated for these losses under any scheme of compensation applicable to Ireland
Mr. SAMUELI understand that the facts are as stated in the first part of the question, but that some at least of the men have since found other employment. The reply to the second part of the question is in the negative.
