HC Deb 14 August 1911 vol 29 cc1720-1W
Mr. FELL

asked at what date the Guaranteed Land Stock issued under The Purchase of Land (Ireland) Act, 1891, can be redeemed, and what is the latest date at which such stock must be redeemed; and if all stock issued under this Act is redeemable at the same time?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

Guaranteed Land Stock issued under the Purchase of Land (Ireland) Act, 1891, is not redeemable before 1921, and thereafter may be redeemed if and as Parliament may direct. A sinking fund has been established under the Act of 1891, which should prove sufficient to redeem the stock by 1941.
