Vol. 15 No. 1

WRITTEN ANSWERS. - LEVINGE ESTATE (WESTMEATH).

SEAN O LAIDHIN

asked the Minister for Lands and Agriculture if he will state whether any negotiations have taken place by the Land Commission with Mrs. Norah Levinge, Violetstown, Westmeath, in connection with the lands of Belfield; and if he will state when it is likely that these lands, consisting of two hundred acres, will be distributed amongst the uneconomic holders in the district, and if he is further aware that Mrs. Levinge has lands also in Violetstown, Levington, Tornanstown, and Clonunbawn.

Mr. HOGAN

The lands of Belfield (otherwise Brannockstown) referred to appear to comprise a holding in the occupation of the Representatives of Henry Loftus Lewis, deceased, as judicial tenant on the Estate of G.R. Hyde, County Westmeath. This holding will be a "retained" holding and will be dealt with as such when the Land Commission are dealing with the Estate under the Land Act, 1923.
