HC Deb 19 November 1908 vol 196 c1424
MR. WILLIAM ABRAHAM (Cork County. N.E.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will make further inquiry into the case of Thomas J. O'Keeffe, an evicted tenant on the Wallis estate, County Cork, which possesses features of peculiar hardship, and the circumstances connected therewith having altered materially since the Estates Commissioners decided to take no action in the matter, and seeing also that the planter in occupation of the holding would be willing to surrender it to the Commissioners upon getting reasonable compensation.

MR. CHERRY

The Estates Commissioners cannot see their way to depart from their decision not to take any action in reference to Thomas J. O'Keeffe's application.
