Land Commission records are not compiled by reference to specific districts such as those mentioned in the question. For County Tipperary (SR) and County Waterford as a whole, however, the reply takes the form of a tabular statement which I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate with the Official Report.
Following is the statement:—
