HC Deb 25 April 1910 vol 17 c202W
Mr. KILBRIDE

asked if the Verschoyle estate, in South Kildare, is about to be sold; whether a request has been made to the Estates Commissioners by the landlord or on his behalf; and whether the tenants have approached the Estates Commissioners with the view that they should purchase and distribute the untenanted land amongst the evicted tenants and uneconomic holders of land?

Mr. BIRRELL

Proceedings for the sale of this estate to the tenants were instituted in November, 1907. It includes some untenanted land which the owner proposes to sell to the Estates Commissioners. The estate will be dealt with in order of priority, but its turn has not yet come.
