HC Deb 29 March 1898 vol 55 c1240
MR. J. P. FARRELL

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he can state whether proceedings were instituted in the Land Commission Court in Dublin for sale to the tenants of the Cook estate, in the parish of Killashee and electoral division of Moydow, county Longford; and how it came to pass that no steps were taken to complete the sale, although the agreements to purchase were fully signed and sworn to?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

So far as I have been able to ascertain, there are no proceedings pending in the Land Commission for the sale of the estate referred to in this Question.
