HC Deb 06 April 1909 vol 3 cc1128-9W
Mr. DELANY

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners propose acquiring the untenanted farms of Park and Lyrogue, on the Hopkins estate, near Errill, Ballybrophy. Queen's county; and, in view of the fact that there are evicted tenants and small occupiers in the locality requiring land, and that the 11 months' grazier named Mole is endeavouring to create a tenancy to purchase, will he see that the Commissioners intervene at once?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners inform me that this estate, which is being sold direct to the tenants, has been inspected and that the inspector's report is at present under their consideration.
