HC Deb 06 May 1908 vol 188 cc253-4
MR. LONSDALE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ire land whether it is in accordance with the instructions of the Estates Commissioners that an inspector under the Evicted Tenants Act should conduct his inspections in association and consultation with a local Member of Parliament.

MR. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners inform me that there is nothing in their instructions which prohibits an inspector from obtaining such information locally as he may think advisable.
