§ MR. HAZLETON (Galway, N.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he can state whether William Browne, Gardenham, Drumgriffen, county Galway, is entitled to rights of turbary under the agreement purchasing his holding from Major William W. P. Joyce, dated March 1st, 1905; whether he is aware that the purchase of this holding was conditional on such rights being secured to him; and whether the Estates Commissioners can take steps to see that they are so secured.
1340 (Answered by Mr. Bryce.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that there are before them two agreements for purchase, signed by William Browne, dated March 1st, 1905. One of these relates to the purchase of one-fifteenth share of a turf bank, comprising altogether seventy-three acres. When the case comes before the Commisssioners for ruling, they will take all necessary steps to secure that Browne's share of this turf bank is properly vested in him.
