§ MR. EDWARD BARRY (Cork Co., S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the fact that no evicted tenant has yet been reinstated in South Cork, steps will immediately be taken to induce the Estates Commissioners to send down an inspector to that constituency to make inquiries and report on the best means for reinstating the evicted tenants in their former holdings.
MR. BRYCEInquiries as to all the evicted tenants in county Cork are being prosecuted by the Commissioners as rapidly as possible. The Commissioners understand that some sixteen evicted tenants have recently been reinstated and that negotiations for reinstatement are proceeding in other cases.
