Vol. 192 No. 3

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Division of Meath Estates.

116.

asked the Minister for Lands if he will give the names of any estates in County Meath which have been taken over by the Land Commission for division; and if it has yet been decided whether any such estates or parts of such estates are to be given to local applicants.

The reply takes the form of a tabular statement which, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:

Apart from turbary and small residues of allotted estates, particulars of lands in the possession of the Land Commission in Co. Meath are as follows:—
