§ MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners have received the renewed application for reinstatement made by Thomas Dooner, on the Blennerhassett estate, near Beaufort, county Kerry; and whether they have taken any, and, if so, what steps to deal with the application.
(Answered by Mr. Bryce.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that they have received from Thomas Dooner an application for reinstatement on the estate in question and have referred the case to an inspector for inquiry and report. The Commissioners will, when the circumstances are fully before them, consider what steps it may be desirable to take in the matter.
