HC Deb 18 March 1892 vol 2 cc1194-5
MR. CONDON (Tipperary, E.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if his attention was directed to the case which was brought before Judge Boyd, on the 10th ultimo, of certain tenants on the Dowling estate, who were evicted for one year's rent, including the hanging gale, and the wife of the evictor put in their holdings at a sum about £100 per annum less than the evicted tenants were paying; how much rent has she paid to the Court during her tenancy; what was the amount due from her on surrendering her title to the Court, on the understanding that her sons would be returned tenants and all arrears wiped out; what is the rent now to be paid by the Messrs. Dowling's present tenants; and what was offered by the evicted tenants?

MR. JACKSON

The matter referred to comes in no way within the cognisance of the Executive Government. It is in the hands of the Receiver Judge, who presumably dealt with it in his discretion.
