§ MR. MURPHYTO ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland what steps have been taken by the Estates Commissioners for dealing with the applications of the evicted tenants on the Morrogh Bernard estate, county Kerry; and whether any application for the sale of this estate has yet been made to the Commissioners.
(Answered by Mr. Bryce.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that an originating application for the sale of this estate was lodged with them on January 2nd, 1906, and that they are now in communication with the vendor upon the subject of the restoration of the evicted tenants, from ten of whom applications for reinstatement have been received.
