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.

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.
