A Bill To Abolish Compositions For Tithes In Ireland And To Substitute Rent-charges In Lieu Thereof: Ordered By The House Of Commons To Be Printed, 13

By John Russell and Tithes (Ireland)

Book Overview

This document is a bill presented to the House of Commons in 1838 concerning the abolition of compositions for tithes in Ireland and the substitution of rent-charges. The bill, titled "A Bill To Abolish Compositions For Tithes In Ireland And To Substitute Rent-charges In Lieu Thereof," represents a significant effort to reform the system of tithes, which had long been a source of contention and social unrest in Ireland. The proposed changes aimed to replace the existing tithe system with a more equitable system of rent-charges, potentially alleviating the burden on tenants and addressing historical grievances.

Ordered to be printed on June 13, 1838, this bill provides valuable insight into the legislative processes and socio-economic reforms undertaken in 19th-century Ireland. It is an essential historical document for understanding the complexities of land ownership, religious obligations, and parliamentary actions during a period of significant change and reform.
