§ MR. FLAVINI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the fact that a tenant has the power, under the Purchase Act of 1891, of extending the period of repayment of annuities from the shorter to the longer number of years and thereby get the benefit of decadal reductions, he can state what the amount of the annuity payable by a tenant would be, and for how many years, who purchased a £20 rental at eighteen years purchase without decadal reductions under the Purchase Act of 1891; and whether he can state, in the case of same tenant who purchased a £20 rental at eighteen years under the 1891 Act with decadal reductions, what number of years his annuity would have to run, and what would be the amount of his annuity for each of the periods over which he is entitled to get the benefits of the decadal reductions, what would be the amount of his total payments and his average annual payments under the extended period of repayment, with decadal reductions.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThis information cannot conveniently be given orally, but I have communicated it to the hon. Member, and it will also be printed on the Votes Paper to-night.
