I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state why the Local Government Board have no record that the Roscommon District Council have passed a resolution stating that they will give preference to Irish-made goods, seeing that this resolution was published in the local newspaper on 1st June.

The minutes of the proceedings of the Roscommon Rural District Council which were furnished to the Local Government Board contain no entry of any such resolution as is referred to in the Question.
