§ MR. J. MACVEAGHTo ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of recent litigation before the Court of Appeal, the Land Commission, in dealing with the Carrickfergus corporate lands, County Antrim, will take steps to see that the sub-landlords prove their title to the land.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners presume that the hon. Member refers to the recent decision of the Court of Appeal in the case of the estate of Hugh Gillmore Wilson. The Commissioners will have due regard to that decision and the judgments given in cases of landlords holding under the Carrickfergus Corporation and all other vendors.
