asked the Minister for Lands if he will state whether the Land Commission have considered the propriety of acquiring the non-residential farm of Mr. Charles Duignan, Clooneyquinn, County Roscommon, for the purpose of division amongst deserving applicants; and, if so, with what result.

asked the Minister for Lands if he will state whether the Land Commission have considered the propriety of acquiring the remainder of the Walker estate, Rathcarrick, County Sligo; and, if so, with what result.
Proceedings for the purchase of 773 acres of this estate are nearing completion.
That does not relate to the question. Do I take it that the Land Commission has no intention of acquiring the remainder of the estate?
I think the Deputy would have to put down a question.
I asked specifically about acquisition of the remainder of the Walker estate, which is the demesne, if you like.
What is the remainder?
The demesne, if you like.
I will try to let the Deputy have the information.
Thank you.
