§ Mr. LUNDONasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland if all political parties in Ireland agreed on the repeal of the present Malicious Injuries Acts as applied to that country, he will bring in a short Bill which would meet the requirements of such a demand and place Ireland on the same basis as regards malicious injuries claims as England, Scotland, and Wales?
§ Mr. BIRRELLProposals for the repeal of the Irish Malicious Injury Code have always been treated as controversial. In these circumstances I cannot hold out any hope of legislation on the subject at present.
