Vol. 232 No. 12

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

31.

asked the Minister for Lands if he will state with regard to County Kildare what estates the Land Commission holds; the size of these holdings; how long they have been in the possession of the Land Commission; and when it is hoped to dispose of 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:

County: Kildare.

Particulars of Estates—(apart from turbary, insignificant residues of partly allotted properties and lands transferred in exchange)—in the possession of the Land Commission for division.

*Already Partly Allotted.

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 3,000 acres.
