HC Deb 31 October 1918 vol 110 c1618
19. Mr. F. MEEHAN

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland the date of lodgment with the Land Commission of the purchase agreement forms of the estate of H. J. B. Clements, at Manorhamilton, county Leitrim; and the cause of delay in this estate being vested in the tenants, and when it was probably to be vested?

Mr. SAMUELS

The purchase agreements were lodged in June, 1906. A number of questions relating to turbary and other matters had to be settled before the purchase money of this estate could be advanced under the Land Purchase Acts. The Estates Commissioners hope to be in a position to advance the purchase money and vest the holdings in the purchasing tenants early next month.
