HC Deb 20 February 1893 vol 8 c1853
MR. MOLLOY (King's Co., Birr)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he will consider the necessity for simplifying the Labourers (Ireland) Acts by further legislation, so as to reduce the heavy law costs and shorten and simplify the procedure now necessary in obtaining a title to lands required for the erection of labourers' cottages?

*MR. J. MORLEY

I have already answered two questions bearing on the delay in the procedure ender the Labourers Acts, and pointed out that this delay is more often due to Boards of Guardians rather than to the Local Government Board. If however, some hon. Gentleman from Ireland has proposals to make for the simplification of this procedure, I will carefully and promptly consider them.
