SHEEHAN (Kerry, E.)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, How many applications to fix fair rents have been lodged with the Land Commission Court for six months up to 1st February, 1888, in the County Kerry; in how many cases have fair rents been fixed by the Courts during the period; and, whether any steps will be taken to remove the block in the Land Court in that county, and so relieve applicants from impending ruin?
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY (Colonel KING-HARMAN) (Kent, Isle of Thanet)(who replied) said: The Land Commissioners inform me that during the period named 1,105 applications were lodged, and in 38 cases rents have been fixed in County Kerry. A Sub-Commission will sit in Kerry during the month of April.
