HC Deb 18 July 1905 vol 149 cc1069-70
MR. DELANY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether a claim for reinstatement has been received by the Estates Commissioners on behalf of the representatives of an evicted tenant named Talbot, on the estate of Dunnes Minors, Clonaslee Queen's County; whether the present occupant of the farm is a brother of the late owner of the estate; and what steps have been taken towards reinstatement in this case.

MB. WALTER LONG

The application has been received, but, in the absence of any proceedings for the sale of the estate, the Commissioners have taken no action upon it.

MR. DELANY

Will the Commissioners advise this landlord to give up the farm to the rightful owner—the evicted tenant?

MR. WALTER LONG

The Commissioners have no power to advise the landlord.
