HC Deb 07 June 1905 vol 147 c953
MR. MURPHY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners have received an application from Mr. Maurice Flaherty, an evicted tenant on the Blennerhassett Estate, county Kerry; and, if so, what steps they have taken towards effecting the reinstatement of the applicant.

MR. WALTER LONG

The application has been received, but no opportunity for dealing with it has arisen, as the estate has not yet come before the Commissioners.

MR. MURPHY

Do the Government, then, intend to do nothing in these cases?

MR. WALTER LONG

I have no power to act if no application is made.
