§ MR. O'DOWD (Sligo, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that there are on estates in Ireland numbers of tenants who under pressure of eviction and from other causes have been forced into the position of future tenants on the landlords' terms; and, if so, whether the cases of such will be considered in any amending Bill to the Irish Land Act of 1903 which may be introduced.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThere is nothing in the Act of last year to debar future 594 tenants from purchasing. They can purchase under Clause 1 (2).
