HC Deb 22 February 1883 vol 276 c594
COLONEL COLTHURST

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, When the payments on account of arrears will be made to landlords or others interested?

MR. TREVELYAN

I am informed, Sir, by the Land Commissioners that orders have been made for payments to the extent of about £70,000, and that payments in these cases await the application of the landlords entitled. Up to this date payments have been actually made to the amount of £30,000, in the case of 4,259 holdings. It is expected that by the end of May orders for payment will have been made in all joint applications.
