§ MR. T. P. O'CONNOR (Liverpool, Scotland)I beg' to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the wide-spread demand among the leaseholders of Ireland in favour of the Leaseholders (Ireland) Bill, and of the postponement of 1499 the Land Purchase Bill, he will afford facilities for the passage of the Leaseholders (Ireland) Bill into law this Session?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURNo, Sir; apart from other objections I think a conclusive objection is the present state of public: business.
