HC Deb 17 March 1902 vol 105 c174
MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN (Kilkenny)

On behalf of the hon. Member for East Kerry (Mr. MURPHY), I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the Inspector of the Congested Districts Board, who long since visited the districts of Knocknagoshel, Brosna, and Scartaglen, in the county of Kerry, promised several persons therein to supply them with young trees for planting, and seeing that this promise caused considerable outlay and expense in fencing and otherwise, will he explain the delay in supplying these trees to the persons requiring them.

MR. WYNDHAM

The supply of trees is conditional upon the proper fencing of the lands. In many cases the fencing has not been completed. The trees will be supplied in November to all those who have complied with the Board's conditions.
