No offer of land has been received by my Department from the landowner mentioned. As the Deputy was informed in reply to his question of 9th February, 1961, the nursery needs of this area are already adequately provided for by existing nurseries in Wexford. If, however, the land in question is suitable for planting, I would be very glad to see it acquired and I am, accordingly, arranging to have it inspected at an early date.
