asked the Minister for Lands and Fisheries whether he will state if it is intended to divide the remaining portion of the Wallace Estate, near Batterstown, Co. Meath, among landless men of that area, and whether he is aware that there are several suitable applicants who are in a position to work the land and will be forced to leave the country with their small capital if it is not done.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - DIVISION OF MEATH LANDS.
Mr. O'REILLY
The Land Commission do not propose to divide the lands referred to amongst landless men. They propose to utilise them for the relief of congestion.
