§ MR. EDWARD BARRY (Cork County, S.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will state how many applications for reinstatement have been received by the Estates Commissioners from evicted tenants in South Cork; how many have been reinstated by the landlords voluntarily and by the Estates Commissioners, respectively, since the passing of the Land Act of 1903; and what financial assistance have those tenants got to enable them to make a new start in life.
§ (Answered by Mr. Walter Long.) This information is not tabulated by Parliamentary divisions. In the entire county 602 applications have been received from evicted tenants, of whom eight have been reinstated by the landlords. One has been provided by the Commissioners with farm in another county, and assisted with a grant of £100.
