Mr. BRADY
asked the Chief Secretary whether he is aware of the dissatisfaction that exists amongst prison warders in Ireland owing to the inequality which exists in their scale of pay and other emoluments as compared with similar officers in

Mr. BIRRELL
Memorials have been received on this subject, and the matter is still under consideration.
