HC Deb 02 November 1908 vol 195 cc752-3
MR. J. P. FARRELL

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether any steps have yet been taken by the Estates Commissioners to reinstate Thomas Brady in his farm at Culleenmore, North Longford, on the White estate, portion of which is in the occupation of a planter named Bodell; will he state what was the report of the inspector who inquired into the case; and when action will be taken on that report.

(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners have inquired into the application for reinstatement of Thomas Brady, who resides in New York. The holding at one time occupied by him has been purchased by the present occupier under the Land Purchase Acts, and the Commissioners cannot take any further action in the matter.
