Vol. 8 No. 2

CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - CLOGHEEN (TIPPERARY) ACCOUNT.

asked the Minister for Defence if he will state why the balance of an account amounting to £41 0s. 9d. due to Mr. E. Riordan, of Clogheen, Co. Tipperary, on account of the National Army, has not been paid; if Mr. Riordan's books have been inspected by military officers and approved, and if he will take steps to expedite the payment of the balance due on this long outstanding account.

Accounts amounting to £73 6s. 0d. in respect of billetting furnished by Mr. Riordan were assessed at the rates operative at the time, and discharged by the payment of sums amounting to £36 7s. 0d. Increased rates, however, were subsequently authorised. Mr. Riordan's accounts have now been re-assessed, and a further payment of £28 15s. 6d. is being made to him immediately. He is also being paid at once an account amounting to £4 2s. 5d. in respect of goods supplied to the Army.
