HC Deb 24 June 1898 vol 60 c22
MR. DALY (Monaghan, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that tenants in Ireland who get fair rents fixed before the Sub-Commission Court experience much annoyance by not being able to get the Appeal Court valuers' valuation in case there is an appeal unless the landlord signs a joint application; and whether lie will direct that in future tenants can get the court valuers' valuation without application to the landlord?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. ATKINSON,) Londonderry, N.

On behalf of my right honourable Friend the Chief Secretary I have to say that the Land Commissioners have already publicly announced their intention to revert to the practice, which spreviously obtained, of notifying the result of court valuers' valuations in appeal cases to the parties interested, and of issuing to either of them copies of such reports where they are bespoken prior to the hearing. This change in procedure will be effected with the least possible delay.
