CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - DRIMOLEAGUE PRE-TRUCE CLAIM.
The claim referred to by the Deputy has been received in my Department, and has been referred in the usual way to the Committee appointed under the Indemnity Act, but, having regard to the very large number of claims with which the Committee have to deal, it is not possible to say when this particular claim will be considered, but there will be no avoidable delay in dealing with it.
