HC Deb 19 March 1897 vol 47 cc1035-6
MR. G. MURNAGHAN (Tyrone, Mid)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the decisions arived at by the members of No. 4 Land Sub-Commission, which sat in Omagh on or about 15th October, 1896, have not yet been published; and whether, inasmuch as five months' delay in announcing decisions is unusual and causes much anxiety to parties interested, he will state when the decisions may be expected?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

Judgment has been given in the cases referred to in the Question, and the parties have been duly notified of the result.

MR. CARSON

asked what was the reason of the great delay in giving judgment in these cases?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

I have no information on that point. If my right hon. Friend will put a Question on the Paper I will endeavour to get the information for him.
