HC Deb 11 July 1904 vol 137 cc1193-4
DR. THOMPSON

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if his attention has been called to the amount of work in the office of the Estates Commissioners, and that, not with-standing, the Commissioners have issued directions to their inspectors that in estimating the value of non-judicial rents they are to carefully inspect and tabulate in detail the different farms, noting all the improvements; and, if so, whether he will consider the desirability of allowing an inspector to inspect the estate as a whole and furnish his report without entering so much into minute particulars.

(Answered by MR. Wyndham.)The Estates Commissioners have not issued any instructions of the character mentioned in the Question.
