Question MR. W. H. GREGORY asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether it is the intention of the Government during the present Session to bring in any measure to promote the improvement of Labourers' Habitations in Ireland? THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON , in reply, said, an Act passed in 1860, and commonly called Sir William Somerville's Act, provided for the making of loans, under certain conditions, in order to the building of labourers' dwellings. That Act would expire next year, and it would probably be necessary in the course of the present Session to renew it, with certain alterations and improvements which had been suggested by experience. At the same time, he could give no definite pledge on the subject.
