HC Deb 23 February 1900 vol 79 cc940-1
MR. FLYNN () Cork, N.

I bog to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the Creagh estate, Lyre, Banteer, County Cork, has been in Chancery for some years, and that the tenants have repeatedly applied for a sale under the Land Purchase Acts; and whether', in view of the fact that the adjoining town lands on the same estate have been sold to the tenants, the Court will favourably consider the case of the excluded tenants.

MR. ATKINSON (for Mr. G. W. BALFOUR)

There is some difficulty in identifying the particular estate referred to in the offices of the Land Commission and Land Judge's Court. Further inquiry is, however, being made, and if the hon. Member will supply me with any additional particulars as to the estate which he may have in his possession, the further inquiry directed will be facilitated.
