Vol. 8 No. 20

CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - A DUNMANWAY EVICTION.

asked the Minister for Justice whether he is aware that Mrs. Hanah Crowley, of Shanacrane, Dunmanway, Co. Cork, was, on a decree for possession, evicted from her home on the 22nd July; whether Mrs. Crowley was seriously ill on the occasion and for some time previously; whether she was removed from bed and dressed by Gárda Síochána, and taken from her house to lie near a fence; whether, in reply to a protest as to the action taken, the Sheriff's representative stated that if Mrs. Crowley was dying she would still be removed, and whether inquiries will be instituted into the alleged cruel treatment of the woman.

This is a question of which private notice was given only yesterday, and on behalf of the Minister for Justice I have to state that inquiries are being made. The Deputy will be communicated with as soon as the enquiries are completed.
