HC Deb 17 March 1904 vol 131 cc1406-7
MR. DUFFY (Galway, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that several appeals have been lodged by tenants with the Head Land Commission for close on two years in connection with judicial rents fixed by the Sub-Land Commission on the Dunsandle Estate, near Loughrea; and whether he will explain the circumstances which made such a delay possible.

MR. WYNDHAM

There are thirteen appeals pending from this estate, of which eleven wore lodged twelve months age and the remaining two recently. A sitting for the hearing of appeals will be held at Galway on the 31st May.

MR. CLANCY: (Dublin County, N.)

Can the right hon. Gentleman hold out any hope that in future general arrangements will be made for expediting the hearing of these appeals all over Ireland.

MR. WYNDHAM

I believe that everything possible is being done.

AN HON. MEMBER

You have said that over and over again.
