In reply to the first part of the question, I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer which I gave to the hon. and gallant Member for Faversham on the 7th instant. As regards the last part of the question, the Tithe Act, 1860, provides that all expenses incidental to any redemption shall be payable by the owners of the lands liable to the rentcharge to be redeemed. I may add that, during the passage of the Tithe Act, 1925, through Parliament, no suggestion was made from any quarter of the House that the procedure which had been in force for so many years should be altered.
