HC Deb 25 April 1910 vol 17 cc202-3W
Mr. KILBRIDE

asked the Chief Secretary whether the Estates Commissioners received an application for reinstatement from Mr. Lawrence P. Heffernan, Athy, on 18th February, 1908; whether they promised, on 27th February, 1908, to have the matter dealt with; and, if so, whether he can state the cause of the delay in providing Mr. Heffernan with an equivalent I farm or reinstating him?

Mr. BIRRELL

The Estates Commissioners inform me that Hefferman's application was not lodged within the time specified in the Evicted Tenants Acts and cannot be dealt with under it, and that he has been told so. His former holding has been purchased by the present occupier under the Land Purchase Acts.
