HC Deb 12 December 1911 vol 32 c2331W
Mr. DELANY

asked the Chief Secretary whether a memorial has been received by the Estates Commissioners from a number of tenants on the Kirk estate, Castletown, Queen's County, complaining of the distribution of the bog, and pointing out that under the terms of purchase agreed to the existing turbary rights were to be secured to the tenants for the term of sixty-eight and a-half years; and, in view of the fact that an attempt is being made to upset this agreement, will the Commissioners see, before sanctioning the sale, that their turbary rights are secured to the tenants?

Mr. BIRRELL

The memorial referred to has been received and is at present under the consideration of the Estates Commissioners.
