§ Mr. JEREMIAH MacVEAGHasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can say when the agreements for purchase on the Cromore estate, Portstewart, county Antrim, were signed; whether any progress has since been made towards completion; and, if not, what is the cause of the delay?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe Estates Commissioners assume that the question refers to the estate of Robert A. C. Montague, Portstewart, county Londonderry. The purchase agreements in that case were lodged in February, 1906. The estate has not yet been dealt with as it has not been reached in its order of priority.
