HC Deb 01 March 1910 vol 14 cc826-7W
Mr. LUNDON

asked the Chief Secretary what is the cause of the delay in not advancing the money on the property of Dwyer and others, at Scart, Killealy, county Limerick, and, having regard to the fact that the tenants on this property signed their purchase agreements in September, 1905, and are still paying interest, will steps be taken to have the sale completed, and thus place the tenants on the property on a level with tenants in their neighbourhood, who are paying at the rate of 3¼ per cent., although they had not their farms purchased for months after the Dwyer tenants?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners presume that the hon. Member refers to the estate of Lady H. Dyer and others, the agreements for the purchase of which were lodged in January, 1906. It will be inspected at an early date.
