HC Deb 07 August 1914 vol 65 c2159W
Mr. LYNCH

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland what negotiations are in progress in regard to the Treanmana farm, on the estate of General Kelly Kenny, West Clare; and whether he is aware that 120 acres, available on this farm under the last Land Act, are required to satisfy the congests, some of whom are destitute of tillage land and all of whom are in difficult straits with regard to feeding their cattle?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Congested Districts Board have agreed to purchase this estate, including 192 acres of untenanted land in the townland of Treanmana. When distributing the untenanted land the Board will have regard to the requirements of the occupants of congested holdings in the district.
