HC Deb 29 March 1889 vol 334 c1143
MR. J. F. X. O'BRIEN) (Mayo, S.

asked the Solicitor General for Ireland whether in cases in which landlords obtained Chairmen's decrees for only one half year's rent, a second half year's rent not being yet due, he would grant the aid of the forces of the Crown; whether he was aware that Mr. George A. Moore, of Moorehall, county Mayo, is now taking proceedings against tenants, one half-year's rent only being due; and if he will endeavour to discountenance such conduct on the part of landlords?

THE SOLICITOR GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. MADDEN,) University of Dublin

The hon. Member is misinformed. I understand that in no case is Mr. G. A. Moore taking proceedings against tenants for the recovery of one half-year's rent only.

MR. J. F. X. O'BRIEN

I have in my pocket a process issued by Mr. Moore for half a year's rent.
