HC Deb 25 February 1920 vol 125 c1697W
Mr. DEVLIN

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether his attention has been called to the serious conditions caused by the constant flooding of land and houses at Greencastle, Belfast; whether this flooding is permanent during a great part of the year, involving great hardships and inconvenience to the residents, injury to property, and grave menace to the health of the community; whether this matter has been neglected by the local authority for the past 20 years; and what steps the Local Government Board propose to take in the matter?

Mr. MACPHERSON

A representation on this subject was received on the 23rd inst., and has been referred to the Medical Inspector of the Local Government Board in Belfast for investigation and report.
