HC Deb 14 April 1910 vol 16 cc1559-60W
Mr. O'SHAUGHNESSY

asked the Chief Secretary if he can say whether the Estates Commissioners have taken any steps to purchase the untenanted lands of Ballynorth, Askeaton, in the county of Limerick; and, if so, whether any agreement with the landlord as to purchase has been yet arrived at?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners presume that the hon. Member refers to untenanted lands on the estate of the representatives of Dudley O'Grady, situated in the townland of Ballynorth, county Limerick. The Commissioners were negotiating for the purchase of these lands, but were unable to arrive at an agreement with the owners.
