asked the Minister for Lands and Agriculture whether he is aware that in the case of the Davies Estate, near Shanagolden, £400 was lodged by the vendor a considerable time ago, and that £950 of the agreed purchase money was retained, making a total of £1,350, for drainage and embankment works, and that the lands of various holders remain waterlogged; and whether any works have in fact been carried out by means of such fund in furtherance of the purpose of same.
WRITTEN ANSWERS. - DRAINAGE AT SHANAGOLDEN.
The Commissioners have the question of the embankment and drains on this estate under consideration and are not yet in a position to give a decision in the matter. In the circumstances, I would ask the Deputy kindly to repeat this question.
