§ MR. GILHOOLY (Cork Co., W.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can explain the cause of delay in the sale of the White Estate (near Bantry); and whether he can state approximately when it will be sold.
(Answered by Mr. Wyndham.) The Report made to the Land Judge in the matter of this estate deals with a very large number of holdings. In the case of many of these, the Land Commission have required amendments to be made in the rental, and this cannot be done without the consent of, or on notice to, the tenants whose interests would be affected It is not possible, at present, to say when the property will be offered to the tenants.
