HC Deb 23 April 1896 vol 39 cc1508-9
MR. J. DALY (Monaghan, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, (1) if he has received a memorial from the tenants of the Bath Estate, county Monaghan, who purchased their farms under the Ash-bourne Acts, for an extension of time in payment of their instalments from 49 to 75 years; and (2) whether he will grant the prayer of the memorialists before the next instalment day arrives?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

Memorials have been received from the tenants on other properties in this county, but I do not appear to have received one from the Bath tenants. As to the second part of the Question, I must refer the hon. Member to the provisions of the Land Bill.
