HC Deb 22 March 1889 vol 334 c538
MR. T. W. RUSSELL (Tyrone, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary for Ireland upon how many estates the Plan of Campaign is in operation in Ireland, giving the number by provinces?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

The Plan of Campaign is in operation on estates in Ireland as follows:—Ulster, three estates; Leinster, seven estates; Connaught, four estates; Munster, ten estates. Total 24.

MR. SEXTON (Belfast, W.)

Is the. Plan not now in operation on 38 estates, and are there not 59 other estates where the Plan of Campaign has come to an end by the concession on the part of the landlords of the terms asked for?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I am afraid the hon. Member is not correct in that statement.
