§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELLI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he has received from the Kerry County Council a resolution appealing to the Government to so amend the Land Act as to give power to the Congested Districts Board to purchase compulsory estates within the congested districts; and, if so, what steps he proposes to take in the matter.
MR. BRYCEI have seen a resolution to the effect stated, which was passed by the Kerry County Council in January, 1905. I am not at present prepared to make any statement on the subject of the resolution.
