asked the Minister for Finance if he is aware that the proposed removal of the Stamp Office from the South Mall to the Customs House, Cork, will result in great inconvenience to the members of the legal profession and the general public transacting business at the Stamp Office.

I am not aware of any proposal to remove the Stamp Office from South Mall to the Custom House, Cork. If, however, such removal should be found necessary in the future, I cannot agree that it would result in much inconvenience to members of the legal profession or the general public.
