HC Deb 29 January 1897 vol 45 c793
MR. DANE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state what is the number of applications now pending in the Court of the Land Commission and County Courts in Ireland, respectively: to fix first statutory terms; to fix second statutory terms; under Redemption of Rent Acts; and also the number of appeals pending in each of the foregoing class of cases?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

I am informed by the Land Commission that the preparation of a return containing the desired information would occupy a very considerable time, and it is suggested that a reference may usefully be made to the return of proceedings up to the end of November last, which has been presented to Parliament. The similar return to December will be presented in the course of a few days.
