§ MR. MURPHYI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in the case of a landlord who declines to sell his entire estate but who publicly states in writing his willingness to reinstate an evicted tenant, the Estates Commissioners will take any action to reinstate such tenant when he 1348 finds himself unable to agree to the terms asked by the landlord in direct negotiation between themselves.
§ MR. WALTER LONGIf the Question means the reinstatement of a tenant on a farm which the owner refuses to sell, the Estates Commissioners have no power in the matter. In such case, however, the Commissioners may be able to allot other lands to, the evicted tenant, if such lands are available.
