HC Deb 02 July 1906 vol 159 c1389
MR. J. P. FARRELL

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether any complaint has reached the Land Commission as to distribution of bog on the Granard estate; whether in several cases tenants have been deprived of turbary guaranteed to them under their vesting orders; and, if so, will an inquiry be made by an inspector as to their cases, and the possibilities of getting turbary supplies for them elsewhere on the same estate.

(Answered by Mr. Bryce.) I am afraid I can add nothing to the very full reply given by my right hon. friend the Attorney-General for Ireland to the hon. Member's Question of February 26th.† If any tenant purchaser has been deprived of his legal rights he has his remedy at law. The Land Commissioners have, I am informed, no power to intervene in the matter with the object of procuring turbary for the tenant purchasers, and no purpose, therefore, would be served by their having an inquiry made.
