HC Deb 11 June 1901 vol 97 c113
MR. FFRENCH

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he is aware that King's estate, county Wexford, has been ordered by the Land Judge to be sold under the 40th section of the Land Act of 1896, and that, although the inspection of the estate was made by the Land Commission over a month ago, no report has been sent on yet by that Commission to the Land Judge; and if he will inquire the cause of delay, and, if possible, direct that a report be sent on at once, so that this sale may be completed before the long vacation sets in the Land Judge's Court.

MR. WYNDHAM

The request issued by the Land Judge for an inspection under the 40th section was received by the Land Commission on the 2nd May and the inspector's report is now before the Commissioners. The cases of other estates in which requests were issued and inspections carried out prior to the 2nd May must, however, have precedence over the case of this particular estate, and the Commissioners cannot undertake to make their report upon it before the long vacation.
