In the following 8 years further confiscations were made from the continuing adherents to the Jacobite cause, and also further pardons were granted. The Commissioners of Forfeitures reported to the Irish House of Commons in December 1699 as follows:[6][7]

3,921 named persons had been outlawed initially, who owned
1,060,792 acres (4,293 km2) of land, (about 1⁄20 of the land area of Ireland)
that produced rents of £211,623 a year, and were worth £4,685,130 10s
Of these,

491 had been pardoned in accord with the treaties at Cavan and Limerick, and 792 otherwise; Some of the remaining 2,638 persons or their families had had property restored.
Ultimately the total amount received by the Commissioners was: 752,953 acres (3,047 km2) paying rents of £135,793 p.a., worth £1,699,343. A further £300,000 in chattels and £1,092,000 of forestry had been seized, along with several hundred individual houses.
