HC Deb 08 March 1905 vol 142 cc726-7
MR. CREAN (Cork, S.E.)

I beg to ask Mr. Attorney-General for Ireland whether he is aware that the representatives of the Arnott Estate at Bandon, in the county of Cork, are breaking up the † See (4) Debates, cxxx., 851. estate into parcels for the purpose of sale; and whether, in view of the provisions of the Act, that estates shall be sold as a whole, the Commissioners will refuse to sanction such sales.

MR. ATKINSON

No proceedings for the sale of the Arnott Estate, county Cork, have been instituted before the Estates Commissioners.

MR. CREAN

Would such an apportionment be approved by the Commissioners?

MR. ATKINSON

The Commissioners must first be informed of the circumstances.
