§ Mr. Granvilleasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is aware that tithe-payers, as a condition of obtaining remission of excessive tithe, are being required to answer questions which often they cannot answer; that they are asked in what tithe district the land is situate, although they have no information concerning tithe districts, and are required to state the numbers of the tithe areas, although the tithe apportionments are not in the possession of the tithe-payers nor readily available for their inspection; and will he take steps to secure that the county, parish, and ordnance survey numbers be accepted as a sufficient description of lands in respect of which a certificate of annual value is required?
§ Lieut.-Colonel ColvilleI have been asked to reply. I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Canterbury (Sir W. Wayland) on 12th July last, of which I am sending him a copy.
