Vol. 32 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Division of Tipperary Estates.

asked the Minister for Lands and Fisheries if he will state (a) when it is intended to divide the estates of Mr. Nicko Green, Lattin, Co. Tipperary, and (b) the Baker estate, Ballinard, Co. Tipperary.

A scheme for the division of the following lands is at present in course of preparation, but the Land Commission are not in a position to state when they will be divided:—

If the Deputy refers to the lands of Lattin East, the property of Nicholas J. Green, these lands were also included in the provisional list, but the owner having objected to their inclusion therein, and also to the inclusion of the lands of Ballinagleragh, the Land Commission allowed his objection as regards Lattin East and disallowed it as regards Ballinagleragh. The price of the lands of Ballinagleragh was fixed and published in accordance with the Land Act of 1923, and on the owner's appeal it transpired that the tenure under which Nicholas Green holds both the lands of Lattin East and Ballinagleragh constitutes him a tenant within the meaning of the Land Act, 1923, and he has now been returned to the Land Commission as a tenant of these lands on the estate of Captain Charles Moore. These lands will be dealt with in connection with the sale of the Moore estate under the Act of 1923.

Not being satisfied with the answer to the question, I propose to bring up this matter on the Adjournment.
