§ MR. SHEEHAN (Cork County, Mid.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the estate of James Talbot Power, of Ballingcary, County Cork, has been filed with the Estates Commissioners for purchase; if so, when may an inspection of it be expected; has the claim of a sub-tenant named Jeremiah Sheehan, holding from John Creed, been received by them; and, if so, will it be referred to the inspector who is to report on the estate before it is finally vested in the tenants.
§ MR. CHERRYThe purchase agreements in respect of this estate were lodged with the Estates Commissioners in August, 1906. It is not possible at present to state when the inspection of the estate will take place. Jeremiah Sheehan has been returned as holding a sub-tenancy under John Creedon, and the question of this sub-tenancy will be duly inquired into and considered by the Commissioners before the sale is completed.
