asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that the discontinuance of a mid-day service of trains on the Londonderry and Lough Swilly Railway (Burtonport Extension) involves an additional delay of twenty-four hours in transit of fresh fish from Burtonport, Downings, and other fishing ports to the English markets; and whether he will consider the possibility of arranging for the dispatch of a train from Burtonport about 11 a.m., reaching Crees-lough Station, to which fish a resent from Downings, about 1 p.m., so as to connect with the train leaving Letterkenny for Strabane at 4 p.m.

I am making inquiries on the subject, and will let the hon. Gentleman know the result.
