Vol. 198 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Allotment of County Waterford Lands.

29.

asked the Minister for Lands if he will state in relation to County Waterford the number of acres that have already been allotted by the Land Commission during the current financial year, the number of acres which will be allotted before April, 1963, and the location of these lands.

Already this year lands aggregating 180 acres in County Waterford have been allotted by the Land Commission. The Land Settlement programme for the remainder of the current financial year is necessarily still tentative and it is not possible, at this stage, to indicate precisely the particular lands which will be disposed of by next April. Perhaps, in the circumstances, it would meet the Deputy's requirements if I say that, for the year as a whole, it may be possible to achieve an aggregate allotment in the region of 800 acres in County Waterford.

If the Deputy is interested in any particular estate, I would suggest that he communicate direct with the Land Commission in the matter.
