§ MR. TULLY (Leitrim, S.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Land Commission are aware that in the case of John Flynn, Rathrone, Enfield, and other tenants in the Trim district, the landlords have had their applications to have second-term judicial rents fixed transferred from the county court judge to the Sub-Commission; and whether, in order to expedite the hearing of these cases, they will direct that a Sub-Commission court be held in Trim at an early date.
(Answered by Mr. Wyndham.) The originating notice of application to fix a fair rent in the case specially named in the Question was not served until the end of last October, and was transferred to the Land Commission in December. A list of cases from the Trim district is now in course of disposal. It contains, however, only such applications as were made at dates anterior to that referred to. There is no power to list cases for hearing out of their regular turn except by order of the Land Commission, which should be applied for in the usual way.
