§ MR. LONSDALE (Armagh, Mid.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he pro poses to introduce legislation this session to give effect to the recommendations of the Trinity College, Dublin, Estates Commission, and particularly recommendation number 5, to enable lessees holding under leases originally made for terms of ninety-nine years under the Trinity College, Dublin, Leasing and Perpetuity Act, 1851, to sell as immediate landlords under the Land Purchase Acts in the same manner as if not less than sixty years of the said terms were un-expired.
(Answered by Mr. Walter Long.) The Report of the Commission deals with a number of very difficult and complicated questions which require, and will receive, the most careful consideration of the Government. I cannot, at present, give any undertaking to introduce legislation.
