HC Deb 01 June 1908 vol 189 cc1520-1
MR. LONSDALE

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners intend to acquire any of the un-tenanted land on the Manchester Estate at Tandragee; and, if so, whether they will give a holding to Samuel Rainey equivalent in extent to the farm from which he was evicted.

(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that no proceedings have been instituted for the sale to them of any untenanted land on the estate in question. As regards the particular case of Samuel Rainey the Commissioners have nothing to add to the Answer which was given to the hon. Member's Question of 17th July last.
