Vol. 41 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Vesting of Holdings under the 1931 Land Act.

asked the Minister for Lands and Fisheries to state the total number of holdings vested to date under the Land Act, 1931, and the number of holdings still to be vested.

A gross total of 78,954 holdings have been vested in the Land Commission under the provisions of Section 9 of the Land Act, 1931. There are 583 holdings still to be vested under this section and it is anticipated that the majority of them will be vested in the Land Commission as of the 1st proximo.

A number of applications have also been received under Section 44 of the Land Act, 1931, but it is not possible at present to state how many holdings will be vested in the Land Commission under this section.

Can the Minister say if these figures include the untenanted holdings distributed under the Land Act of 1923? Perhaps the Minister will make enquiries?

I will do so.
