Vol. 240 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Westmeath Lands.

58.

asked the Minister for Lands if he will state (a) the amount of land acquired by the Land Commission in County Westmeath in each of the last ten years, (b) the amount divided each year, (c) the names of the estates now in the possession of the Land Commission there, (d) the acreage of land in each estate and (e) the date on which each estate was acquired.

Replies to the various parts of the question take 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:—
