§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELLOn behalf of the hon. Member for South Mayo I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether Lord Oranmore is the landlord of the police barracks in Ballindine, county Mayo; whether, for a 631 number of years, the police authorities were regularly paying him a yearly rent; whether he has demanded an increase of nearly 50 per cent., and that, as a protest, the police are about leaving; and, if so, whether he will see that they will not be allowed to go into a house from which another tenant was evicted until after the introduction of the promised legislation for tenants in towns.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThe landlord has asked for an increased rent for the barrack. It has not been decided that the police shall leave the existing barrack, but inquiries are being made with a view to ascertain what other suitable houses are available. The concluding inquiry is also raised in a subsequent Question.
