HC Deb 01 March 1886 vol 302 c1512
MR. LEWIS

gave Notice of Motion for a Return of the number of cases in which, during the last two years, 1884 and 1885, the Military Forces of the Crown have been employed in carrying out evictions of tenants of land, or lands and houses, distinguishing each county in Ireland.

MR. SEXTON

I beg to give Notice that I shall oppose the Motion.

MR. LEWIS

Having regard to that fact, I beg to give Notice that I shall ask whether the right hon. Gentleman the Chief Secretary for Ireland will voluntarily lay on the Table the Return I ask for?

MR. SEXTON

And I shall ask, in that case, whether the Return by the Government will be so extended as to make it of any use?
