HC Deb 21 November 1906 vol 165 c831
MR. GINNELL

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will say how the Estates Commissioners propose to enlarge the uneconomic holdings on Colonel Malone's Barronstown estate, and to relieve congestion in that neighbourhood, unless they avail themselves of the opportunity which the sale of that estate affords.

MR. BRYCE

I beg to refer to my Answers to the hon. Member's Questions of 7th and 16th instant. † As I then informed him, the estate in question contains no untenanted land, and therefore, the sale of that estate did not afford the Estates Commissioners an opportunity of acquiring land for the enlargement of holdings.
