§ Mr. JOHN ROCHEasked how much untenanted land in the district of Fermoy, Castleloyns, county Cork, has been purchased since 1903; and the number of acres purchased from Mrs. Pyne, of Ballyvollane, whose tenants signed agreements to purchase in October, 1908?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe information asked for in the first part of the question is not available, as the statistics of the Estates Commissioners are not compiled by rural districts. Mrs. Pyne's estate is being sold by the landlord direct to the tenants under the Irish Land Act, 1903. Agreements for the purchase of 672 acres were lodged in October, 1908.
