§ Mr. O'DONNELLasked whether the cases of the following evicted tenants on the Ventry Estate, county Kerry, have been inquired into, and, if so, with what result: Mrs. M'Mahon, Lougher, Glen-more; Denis Courtney, Lougher; Thomas Hoare, Lougher; John Mahony, Lough; and M. Fitzgerald, Lough; and whether, as this estate is now in the hands of the Congested Districts Board, a proper inquiry will be made and steps taken to have all evicted tenants properly dealt with at the very beginning?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI would refer the hon. Member to my reply to his question on this subject on the 25th July. The Estates Commissioners inform me that they received an application from Mrs. M'Mahon for reinstatement in a holding on the Ventry Estate, from which she states she was evicted in October, 1909, and which is now in the occupation of other tenants. As her application was not lodged within the time specified in the Evicted Tenants Act, 1907, it has not yet been inquired into.
