§ MR. PATRICK WHITE (Meath, N.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord- 482 Lieutenant of Ireland whether the application of Miss Margaret Clarke, Possextown, Nobber, County Meath, to be reinstated in her former holding has been dealt with by the Estates Commissioners, and with what result.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners have received the application referred to, but the holding to which it refers is in the occupation of a tenant. The Commissioners are unable to say when they may be able to deal with the application, as the case does not come within the Evicted Tenants Act, and no proceedings for the sale of the estate on which the holding is situate have been instituted before them.
