§ Mr. FFRENCHasked the Chief Secretary whether he is aware that Colonel Charles G. Tottenham and his Wexford tenants signed purchase agreements on 30th December, 1905, and that the purchase money has not yet been advanced; and whether, as the tenants have to pay 4 per cent. on the purchase money, the Estates Commissioners will complete the sale as soon as possible?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe purchase agreements on the estate to which the hon. Member appears to refer were lodged in the Land Commission in February, 1906, and the Estates Commissioners hope to deal with the estate at an early date.
