asked the Minister for Lands if he will state the area of land possession of which was taken by the Land Commission in the periods from 1st April, 1952, to 31st March, 1953, and from 1st April, 1953, to date in each county.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Land Commission Lands.
As the reply to this question is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, with the approval of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it circulated in the Official Report.
STATEMENT showing all lands of which the Land Commission obtained possession (in the year ended 31st March, 1953 and the seven months ended 31st October, 1953).
