HC Deb 22 July 1909 vol 8 cc740-1W
Mr. LUNDON

asked the Chief Secretary whether the Estates Commissioners have received an application from Simon Ryan, Cross, Pallasgrean, county Limerick, for reinstatement as an evicted tenant; can he state how this case stands; and is it the intention of the Commissioners to provide this man with a farm other than the one he was evicted from?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners received an application from Ryan for reinstatement in a farm on the above estate at one time occupied by his father, and since purchased by the present occupier under the Land Purchase Acts. Ryan is the proprietor of another farm purchased under the Land Purchase Acts, and the Commissioners do not propose to provide him with a second holding.
