§ MR. EDWARD HARRINGTON (Kerry, W.)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether tenants of Major Gall way, near Dingle, County Kerry, on the expiration of their leases served originating notices in the Land Courts last November; and, whether any Sub-Commission has since been held in Dingle, or elsewhere, to decide their cases, or any others now pending in the Dingle District; and, if not, when will such sittings be held?
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY (Colonel KING-HARMAN) (Kent, Isle of Thanet)(who replied) said, the Land Commission reported that eight tenants on the estate of Major Gallway, in the Union of Dingle, served originating notices last November. These notices were listed for hearing before the Sub-Commission sitting for the County of Kerry in April last; but the time at the disposal of the Sub-Commission did not permit of its having any of the cases listed for the Union of Dingle. It was not probable that there would be a Sub-Commission sitting for the County of Kerry before the end of the year.
§ MR. EDWARD HARRINGTONasked, if the right hon. and gallant Gentleman was aware that these tenants were liable for rent which was between three and four times the Government valuation pending the arrangement by the Sub-Commission?
§ COLONEL KING-HARMANsaid, he he had no information on the subject.
