After meeting
between Cosgrave and Craig in London, Cosgrave announces that Eoin MacNeill
would be the Free State’s representative on the Boundary Commission and
around the same time made the formal request to the British Government to set
up the Commission. This drew a hostile response from Craig who re-stated that
he and his government would not recognise any Boundary Commission. Further
work on setting up of the Boundary Commission is delayed, in any case, by the
announcement of an election in the Free State for the 27th
August. Comment |
