Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Labour Commission to Ireland
That this house regrets the present state Of lawlessness in Ireland and the lack of discipline in the armed forces Of the Crown, resulting in the death or injury Of innocent citizens and the destruction Of property; and is Of opinion that an independent investigation should at once be instituted into the causes, nature, and extent Of reprisals on the part of those whose duty is the maintenance Of law and Order.
This proposed vote Of censure condemned the action of the British Government and its agents in Ireland, and asked for an independent inquiry. The request for an inquiry was refused. The situation in Ireland did not improve. Indeed, it grew worse, and the Labour Party, therefore, decided to set up a Commission under its own auspices to inquire into the whole question Of reprisals and violence in Ireland.
