HC Deb 23 March 1910 vol 15 cc1137-8W
Mr. HACKETT

asked the Chief Secretary whether the Estates Commissioners have considered the memorial which they have received from the people of Gortnahoe and New Bermingham, county Tipperary, requesting them to provide a farm for the present occupant of the farm from which a man named M'Donnell was evicted; whether the present occupant of the farm has intimated to the Estates Commissioners his willingness to accept a farm elsewhere from the Estates Commissioners; and whether the Estates Commissioners have taken any steps to provide a farm for him in lieu of the one he now holds, and from which M'Donnell was evicted, with a view to reinstate M'Donnell in his former holding.

Mr. BIRRELL:

The Estates Commissioners inform me that they have received the memorial referred to, and it has been noted for consideration. They are not at present in a position to provide the present occupier of the evicted holding with another holding.
