HC Deb 13 June 1901 vol 95 cc290-1
COLONEL NOLAN (Galway, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he is aware that the Treasury, or some other department of the Government, is now in practical possession of the Killcloony property, which at one time belonged to a philanthropic company, who acquired it with the object of dividing up some grass farms it contained and selling them to the tenants so as to increase their holdings; and if the Government will, when selling this property, strive to fulfil the original object.

MR. WYNDHAM

There is not, as I have already informed the hon. and gallant Member, any power under the existing law to act in the manner which he suggests.
