Sums amounting to £773 have already been expended by the Land Commission on road repairs, drainage and fencing on the turbary reserved to them in the townland of Cloonmore. As far back as 1935, plans for the award of turbary rights over the area were settled but 62 of the 73 selected persons declined to sign the necessary agreements. Fresh proposals for disposal of this turbary will be formulated as soon as possible and in this connection the question of further development and improvement works will be fully considered.
