Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Boyle River Obstruction.
The present position is that the Office of Public Works (who are acting as the agents of the Minister for Agriculture in this matter) have served notice, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 of the Land Reclamation Act, 1949, on occupiers whose lands adjoin the Boyle river, and that it is expected that work on the river at Tinnecarra will start within the next few weeks.
Can the Minister give any indication as to the date on which the machinery will arrive?
If my information is correct, it is now on the way.
