HC Deb 27 February 1905 vol 141 cc1331-2
MR. JOHN CAMPBELL

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the tenants evicted from the Sir J. Strong, H. B. Armstrong, and Hassart Estates, county Armagh, have lodged applications for reinstatement with the Estates Commissioners; and whether, in view of the fact that these lands are at present in the hands of the landlords, he will see that they are purchased by the Estates Commissioners for the purpose of resettling the evicted tenants thereon.

MR. WYNDHAM

Application for reinstatement has been received from one evicted tenant only, whose holding is on the Armstrong estate. No application has yet been made to the Commissioners for the sale of either of the estates mentioned.
