FARRELL (Longford, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will explain why Mr. Commissioner Murrough O'Brien is not now 1219 sitting with the other Commissioners to hear appeal cases; and whether he can arrange that Mr. O'Brien shall sit solus to determine cases not involving legal questions.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThe composition of the Land Commission when hearing appeals is arranged by the Commissioners amongst themselves, having regard to their other official engagements. I have no information in respect to the matter mentioned in the first part of the Question, and no power to act as suggested at the conclusion of the Question.
