To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Appeals which added only £27,87, to rents amount- ing to ;^466,87i must have cost, the committee said, the state and the tenants combined at least ;^25o,ooo, or about ;^io5 for each £1 added to the rent. Even in the sub-commission courts the cost to each tenant swallowed up on an average a year of the benefit gained. Royal commissions and select committees had repeatedly recommended the consolidation of the Irish land laws, con- sisting of several complex and intricate statutes and a mass of un...digested decisions, in one consistent and intelligible act drawn in such language, form, and manner that landlords and tenants should be able to discover their respective rights and duties. This has never been attempted. In 1896, coerced by the exposures of injustice made by the select committee of 1894, the Conservative government passed another act which purported to remedy the wrongs, particularly as to tenants' improvements, which the select committee had brought to light. In the hands of its administrators this act proved as futile as its predecessors.
