Vol. 218 No. 10

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Mayo Congests.

30.

asked the Minister for Lands if congests outside a radius of one mile from the estate of Oranmore and Browne, Claremorris, County Mayo, will be considered for additions of land.

At present, comprehensive proposals are being formulated for the allotment of upwards of 1,600 acres on this and other estates in this district. As stated in reply to a previous question on 6th July last, the claims of the many eligible uneconomic holders in and around the locality will be investigated and assessed in a most thorough manner by the Land Commission before the claims of more distant applicants are considered.

Could the Parliamentary Secretary say what stage the situation has reached?

As I said, comprehensive proposals are being formulated for the allotment of this 1,600 acres.
