HC Deb 25 August 1909 vol 9 c2272W
Mr. MacNEILL

asked the Chief Secretary whether he is aware that no steps have been taken with a view to the restoration to his holding in Ardferran, Bundoran, in the electoral division of the Ballyshannon Union, of Patrick Fox, of Ardferran, whose case was stated in reply to a question addressed to him in July last year to be under the consideration of the Commissioners; what is the explanation of this delay; and what course do the Commissioners intend to adopt with respect to Patrick Fox so as to secure his reinstatement?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners inform me that Patrick Fox's case is still under consideration in connection with the sale of the estate under the Irish Land Act, 1903. They have not yet decided what action they will take in the matter.
