asked the Minister for Finance when he proposes to discharge the claim of Thomas Reynolds, painter, Tuam, for £60, in respect of which a decree was obtained in 1922.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - TUAM PAINTER'S CLAIM.
I am unable to authorise any payment in this case until the claim has been adjudicated on in the court in accordance with the Damage to Property (Compensation) Acts, 1923-1926.
Mr. JORDAN
Has the Minister for Finance received a letter from Mr. Callan, solicitor, Tuam, on the 3rd of January last?
I do not know.
Mr. JORDAN
I have information before me that Mr. Callan wrote on the 3rd of January stating that the necessary forms had been lodged and duly served as far back as 19th May, 1927.
My information is that the forms have not all been lodged.
