§ Mr. O'SHAUGHNESSYasked whether the Estates Commissioners had yet acquired the untenanted lands of Liffane, near Askeaton, in the county of Limerick, on the Hewson property; and, if not, what was the reason for the delay in purchasing them?
§ Mr. REDMOND BARRYThe Estates Commissioners, in view of the provisions of Section 67 of the Irish Land Act, 1909, have published in the "Dublin Gazette" a notice of their intention to acquire these lands, which appear to be held under a fee farm grant, for the purposes of the Evicted Tenants Act, but the owner has filed an objection, which has not yet been heard.
§ Mr. O'SHAUGHNESSYCan the right hon. Gentleman say when the objection will be heard?
§ Mr. REDMOND BARRYI am not in a position to say the exact date.
