HC Deb 23 May 1895 vol 34 c117
MR. MANDEVILLE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, if he is aware that some of the Irish Land Commissioners and Sub-Commissioners are over 65 years of age; and, does he know why they are not retired in the usual way, according to the 65 rule?

MR. JOHN MORLEY

With regard to the status and tenure of office, of the Judicial and other Land Commissioners, I would refer to my answer to a question addressed to me on the 19th February last by the hon. Member for South Roscommon. As regards the Assistant Land Commissioners, I am informed that none of these gentlemen are over 65 years of age?
