HC Deb 21 February 1901 vol 89 c703
CAPTAIN DONELAN (Cork, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been directed to a resolution recently adopted by the Cork County Council condemning the present system of dual ownership of land in Ireland, and advocating compulsory sale upon equitable terms.; whether he is aware that numerous public bodies in Ireland have adopted similar resolutions; and whether it is proposed to give consideration to the views thus expressed.

MR. WYNDHAM

Representations to the effect mentioned have been made by a number of public bodies in Ireland. The policy of the Government will be more conveniently discussed on the Amendment to the Address standing in the name of the hon. Member for Water-ford.
