HC Deb 03 March 1890 vol 341 cc1628-9
DR. FITZGERALD (Longford, S.)

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland what is the cause of the delay in holding a sitting of the Land Com mission in the County of Longford; and if he is aware that the Commissioners have not held a sitting since February, 1888, and that there are an enormous number of cases pending?

MR. MADDEN

It appears from the Land Commissioners' Report that the hon. Member is under a misapprehension as to the last sitting in the County of Longford. The Commissioners will arrange for another Sub-Commission sitting in that county as soon as possible. There has been no unavoidable delay. There are in the County Longford at the present time 561 cases undisposed of.
