asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether the Congested Districts Board have appointed during the present year a number of inspectors or valuers; and, if so, whether he will state the names, addresses, and occupations of the persons appointed?

The Congested Districts Board have not appointed any inspectors during the present year, and so far only one temporary valuer has been appointed, namely, Mr. Matthew Flanagan, J.P., farmer, of Tulsk, county Roscommon.
