Irish Land Act, 1903 (Dividends on Stock).

HC Deb 22 May 1912 vol 38 cc2039-40W

Mr. PATRICK WHITE

asked the Secretary to the Treasury what amounts were paid out of the Consolidated Fund on account of the dividends on stock, under Section 29 of the Irish Land Act, 1903, owing to the deficiency of the income of the Irish Land Purchase Fund for each of the last five years?

Mr. MASTERMAN

It has not been necessary to call upon the Consolidated Fund to make good the guarantee given by Section 29 of the Irish Land Act, 1903.
