Vol. 219 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Tipperary-Waterford Lands.

57.

asked the Minister for Lands what areas of land in South Tipperary and West Waterford are in the hands of the Land Commission at present; and if he will state in the case of each piece of land (a) when it was acquired, (b) the present position regarding it, and (c) when it is expected that it will be divided.

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:—

PARTICULARS of estates—apart from turbury, insignificant residues of allotted properties and lands transferred in exchange—in the possession of the Land Commission for division in (a) County Tipperary (SR) and (b) County Waterford.

NOTES: 1. It is not possible at present to indicate when the individual estates mentioned will be allotted but there will be no avoidable delay.

2. During the last three complete financial years the aggregate area allotted in Counties Tipperary and Waterford were approximately 6,300 and 3,100 acres, respectively.
