MR. P. A. MCHUGHTo ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners have yet framed a percentage scale of fees, under Section 23 (11) of the Land Act of 1903; and whether it is proposed to publish particulars of the negotiation fees sanctioned under the provisions of that Act.
(Answered by Mr. Bryce.) The scale of fees in question has not yet been settled, but each case which arises is dealt with on its merits by the Estates Commissioners. The forthcoming Report of the Commissioners will contain information on the subject.
