§ MR. MURPHY (Kerry, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state whether the Congested Districts Board would be prepared to reconsider the question of their possession of the evicted farms at Cragg and Ardcrone, county Kerry, with the view of a satisfactory settlement of the claims of the evicted tenants, Mrs. Cronin and Mr. Lyne, in accordance with the local representations made to them.
§ MR. WALTER LONGThe Answer to this Question is in the negative. The hon. Member has more than once been informed that it would be altogether against public policy to reinstate the ex-tenants, who are defaulting annuitants under the Land Purchase Acts.
