§ Mr. HACKETTasked whether the Estates Commissioners have received an application from Mrs. Loughnane, Toher, Templetoughy, county Tipperary, requesting them to have her reinstated in a farm from which her father was evicted about nineteen years ago on the estate of Mr. Stubber, Queen's County; whether the lands comprising the estate from which Mr. Loughnane was evicted have been acquired for redistribution by the Estates Commissioners; and whether the Estates Commissioners propose to reinstate Mrs. Loughnane or provide a suitable holding for her upon the estate?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe reply to the first paragraph of the question is in the affirmative. The Estates Commissioners have acquired a portion of this estate, but it was not found practicable to provide Mrs. Loughnane with a holding. Proceedings are at present pending before the Commissioners for the acquisition of a further portion of the estate, comprising 541 acres, under the provisions of the Evicted2572W Tenants Act, 1907, and, if acquired, Mrs. Loughnane's application will be considered in connection therewith.
