HC Deb 05 August 1889 vol 339 c328
MR. SEXTON

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland what particulars he can give of the recent evictions on Lord Clanricarde's estate in the Portumna district; whether any further evictions there are in contemplation; what offers of settlement, if any, were made on the part of the landlord and of the tenants respectively; and, whether he will lay upon the Table a Copy of any Correspondence between any member or officer of the Irish Government and any persons acting in the interest of the landlord, or of the tenants, with respect to this estate?

MR. MADDEN

On behalf of my right hon. Friend I must ask the right hon. Gentleman to postpone the question until to-morrow.
