§ MR. JUSTIN M'CARTHYasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether his attention has been called to the complaints made in the district of Granard, county Longford, of inconvenience caused by the fact that claims for reduction of rent made in Granard are heard by the Sub-Commissioners in the town of Longford, many miles distant; and, whether he will recommend that Granard cases should be tried in Granard?
§ MR. TREVELYANThe instructions of the Land Commissioners to the Assistant Commissioners are to hear cases from each Poor Law Union at the place most convenient to the suitors. The Land Commissioners are unable to say why the Longford Sub-Commission has appointed the hearing of Granard cases at Longford; but they have communicated with them by the telegraph for the purpose of ascertaining, but up to the present date they have received no reply.
