§ MR. WILLIAM ABRAHAM (Cork County, N.E.)To ask the Chief Secretary 940 to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he can state whether the Estates Commissioners have made inquiry through one of their inspectors into the cases of two evicted tenants named O'Shea and Kelleher, on the Buckley estate, Araglin County Cork; whether Colbert, the present occupier of the farms, would be willing to give them up to the evicted tenants on receiving compensation; and if the Commissioners will endeavour to effect the reinstatement of Messrs. O'Shea and Kelleher in their old holdings.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners have inquired into the applications of Denis Kelleher and Mrs. Ellen O'Shea, and have decided to take no action in Mrs. O'Shea's case, but will provide Denis Kelleher with a farm in the event of their acquiring un-tenanted land in the district.
