§ 19. Mr. GINNELLasked the Chief Secretary whether the Return of Lands Undisposed of by the Congested Districts Board for Ireland, of which notice appears on the Order Paper, will be granted?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe records of the Congested Districts Board are not kept according to parishes and townlands, and to prepare such a return as is asked according to counties would involve an expenditure of time and labour disproportionate to its value. Information with regard to untenanted lands or estates purchased by the Board, which will probably to some extent meet the requirements of the hon. Member, is contained in the Board's twenty-third annual report which has recently been presented to Parliament and will shortly be available to Members.
