Mr. Boland

asked the Minister for Lands whether he can state when the bog reserved by the Land Commission on the Phibbs estate at Moylough, County Sligo, consisting of approximately 250 acres will be sub-divided amongst the farmers in that area.
Mr. Boland
I would ask the Deputy to be good enough to repeat his question in a fortnight's time. It will be necessary to investigate the matter locally.
