asked the Minister for Finance why the undermentioned persons who have made repeated applications have not been repaid Dáil Loan subscribed by them in 1919-1920:—James Harrington, Kilbaha, Newtownsandes, Kerry; Patrick Shine, Dirreen, Athea, County Limerick; Patrick Sheehy, Tullig, Kilflynn, County Kerry; Donal O'Neill, Castle Street, Tralee, County Kerry; Edmond Harty, Lisduff, Ballyheigue, Kerry.

There is no record in my Department of the receipt of an application from John Harrington, of Kilbaha, Newtownsandes, for repayment in respect of a subscription to the Dáil Eireann Internal Loan. Applications have been received in the other cases referred to in the Deputy's question, and they are being dealt with in the ordinary course.
