§ Mr. SHEEHYasked whether the Estates Commissioners have received an offer from Miss Bomford to sell her estate in Meath to them; if so, how far have the negotiations progressed; have the Commissioners got applications for parcels of the property; and what steps are being taken to secure that properly qualified persons only shall get parts of the land?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe Estates Commissioners are unable to identify this estate as pending for sale before them. Applications for allotments on the estate have been received and have been noted for consideration in the event of proceedings for sale of the property being instituted before the Commissioners.
