HC Deb 23 February 1900 vol 79 c939
DR. AMBROSE () Mayo, W.

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he can state the number of acres of land purchased by the Congested Districts Board in the province of Connaught since the Congested Districts Board Act came into force, dividing them into the number of acres already striped and in the hands of tenants; the number of acres unstriped and in the hands of the Congested Districts Board, and how long have the Congested Districts Board been in possession of such lands; and the number of acres striped and in the possession of the Congested Districts Board, and how long have such lands been in the Board's possession.

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

It has not been found possible to obtain the whole of the information desired in this question in the short interval since it appeared on the Paper, and I will ask the hon. Member to repeat the question on Monday.
