HC Deb 01 May 1890 vol 343 c1832
MR. TUITE

I beg to ask the Attorney General for Ireland whether he has received a copy of a resolution adopted unanimously by the Mullingar Board of Guardians on the 3rd instant, and published in the Westmeath Examiner of the 4th instant, complaining of the insufficient reductions in rent given by the Westmeath Sub-Commission at their recent sittings in Mullingar; and whether, considering the dissatisfaction and discontent which such decisions have produced, he will, in the interests of peace and order, consider the desirability of transferring some of the other Sub-Commissions to the county?

MR. MADDEN

A copy of the resolution mentioned was received. If the parties are dissatisfied with the decision referred to they can appeal. It would not be proper for the Government to issue directions to the Court of the Irish Land Commission upon complaints made by either landlords or tenants, with reference to any decisions of Assistant Commissioners upon their cases.
