Irish Parliament debates mercy and attainder in rebellion crisis
In the House of Commons on July 27 the Attorney General urged two bold measures. One would banish for life those active in the rebellion, with safeguards against returning to enemy lands. the other would legislate attainder to seize rebel property for Crown relief. General Craddock testified to Harvey and Grogan's roles, while Lord Edward Fitzgerald’s alleged actions were explored. Looming relief for loyalists was debated alongside amnesty concessions, with warnings to subdue rebels first and compensate loyal sufferers only after suppression. Continuous testimony and calls for immediate relief were noted, ending with adjournment.
