§ COLONEL M'CALMONT (Antrim, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he will state how many farms have been sold in Ireland under the Land Commission since the Act of 1890 became law; also how many labourers' houses have been erected or improved in connection with such farms in pursuance of the order of the Land Commission under Section 26.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThe Act of 1891 is presumably intended to be referred to. Between the passing of that Act and the 31st ultimo, advances have been made in 27,924 cases to enable tenants to purchase their holdings under the Acts of 1891–1896. The number of Orders made under the 26th Section of the Act of 1891 has been three.
