HC Deb 16 December 1908 vol 198 c1870
MR. BARRIE (Londonderry, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will state in how many cases of applications under Section 1, subsection (1), of the Land Purchase Act, 1903, did the Estates Commissioners in the years 1906 and 1907 make, or direct to be made, inquiry into matters affecting the security.

MR. BIRRELL

It is not the practice of the Estates Commissioners to inspect for security holdings in respect of which applications have been lodged under Section 1, subsection (1) of the Irish Land Act, 1903, but such holdings may have to be inspected for other purposes.
