HC Deb 03 July 1905 vol 148 c744
MR. JOHN O'DONNELL

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Brown Hall Estate, near Balla, county Mayo, which was purchased over two years ago by the Congested Districts Board, and on which there are several hundred acres of grazing lands, is being used by that Board for grazing purposes instead of being divided amongst the tenants and fenced; and, if so, whether he will take immediate steps to have these grass lands, divided.

(Answered by Mr. Walter Long.) As I have already informed the hon. Member, the Board's officers are engaged in rearranging these lands and preparing them for re-sale. Until this work has been completed the lands must be let for grazing.
