Vol. 186 No. 8

Ceisteanna—Question. Oral Answers. - Mayo Forestry Land.

16.

asked the Minister for Lands the acreage of land acquired for forestry purposes in County Mayo during the year 1960, and the location and areas of the lands acquired.

The total area acquired for State forestry purposes in Co. Mayo in the year 1960 was 1,525 acres, acquired in 10 separate lots.

Information regarding the location and individual areas of the lots acquired is given in a tabular statement which I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have circulated with the official report.

Following is the statement:—
