HC Deb 29 June 1914 vol 64 cc39-40
95. Mr. SHEEHY

asked when the vesting order is to be issued by the Estates Commissioners in the case of the Farness estate, at Croboy, Hill-of-Down, county Meath, the tenants on which signed agreements to purchase in 1906?

Mr. BIRRELL

This estate is the subject of direct sale proceedings from the vendor to the tenants, and purchase agreements at prices agreed upon between the parties have been lodged with the Estates Commissioners. The estate has been inspected, and provided the Commissioners' requirements as to title and other matters are complied with, it is anticipated that the holdings will be vested in the purchasing tenants during the current financial year.
