§ MR. VINCENT KENNEDY (Cavan, W.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieuteannt of Ireland if he will state whether any steps have yet been taken to put the Evicted Tenants Act, 1907, into operation in County Cavan, and what are they; and has every evicted or alleged evicted tenant been inspected in County Cavan, and, if so, how often.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners propose to acquire in County Cavan, under the Evicted Tenants Act, 129 acres on the estate of Mrs. C. E. Hynds, and 379 acres on the estate of Mr. John Fay, and in the former case the prescribed notice has been gazetted. All applications received from evicted tenants prior to 1st May, 1907, have been inquired into.
