HC Deb 30 September 1909 vol 11 c1558W
Mr. WILLIAM ABRAHAM

asked the Chief Secretary whether the Estates Commissioners have received an application from Carey Joyce for reinstatement in a holding on the estate of Colonel Cooke, Collis, county Cork, from which he has been evicted; and, if difficulty should arise in his reinstatement, whether the Commissioners would consider his application for an allotment of untenanted land in the neighbourhood of the estate or elsewhere, seeing that Joyce is fully capable of working an allotment with advantage?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners have received an application from Carey Joyce, who states that he was evicted in May, 1906, from a holding on the Cooke Collis estate. The case does not come within the Evicted Tenants Act. It will be considered when the estate is being dealt with under the Irish Land Act, 1903.
