asked the Minister for Lands if he will state when afforestation work on the Crofton estate, Mote Park, is expected to commence.

Afforestation work on these lands has been in progress for some time.

Will the Minister state when he expects actual afforestation work will commence on these lands?

Planting is in progress.

Not in Mote Park.

An area of 40 acres has already been planted.

asked the Minister for Lands whether the Land Commission intend to utilise portion of the Rockville estate, County Roscommon, for forestry purposes; and, if so, if he will state when it is hoped that this useful work will commence.

The Land Commission have not completed their proposals for the allotment of the lands in question. It is too early yet to indicate if any of the lands will be utilised for afforestation purposes.
