Vol. 226 No. 3

Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - County Kildare Estates.

7.

asked the Minister for Lands the number of estates and the acreage of each one held by the Land Commission in County Kildare; how long these estates are in the possession of the Land Commission; and when it is proposed to divide them.

The particulars requested are contained in a tabular statement which I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:

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. The necessary local enquiries preliminary to allotment are being pushed forward as rapidly as circumstances permit.

2. During the last three complete financial years the aggregate area allotted in County Kildare was approximately 3,400 acres.
