§ Mr. LYNCHasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether his attention has been called to the distribution of land on the Kelly Kenny estate, Tiermanagh farm; and whether, in view of the fact that the portion available for distribution is limited and the tenants numerous, the Congested Districts Board will divide the land according to the letter and the spirit of the Land Act, 1909, and take care that no uneven distribution may deprive the congests of their legitimate claims?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe lands referred to are being disposed of under a scheme approved of by the Congested Districts Board. They know very well they cannot escape criticism at the hands of those whose hopes have been disappointed, but they will pursue their difficult task in accordance with the spirit and letter of the Land Acts.
