asked the Minister for Finance whether he is aware that Mrs. Kavanagh, Irish Street, Enniscorthy, was seriously wounded on the 10th October, 1922, as she was proceeding from the Cathedral, when firing took place between Irregulars and National Forces, and is now crippled for life; that she is a widow and has a large family altogether dependent upon her, and as a result of her disablement has had to employ a man in her business; that at considerable expense she made an application to the Personal Injuries Commission at Waterford for compensation for the injury sustained and was awarded £100; whether, in view of these facts, he will see his way to have this case reinvestigated.

All the circumstances of this case which were put before them were carefully considered by the Compensation (Personal Injuries) Committee, and they are of opinion that the grant which they recommended is sufficient to cover the losses and out-of-pocket expenses of the applicant, which arose as a result of the injury. In the circumstances I see no reason why the case should be reinvestigated.
