Cavan: From the particulars furnished by the Deputy it has not been possible to identify with certainty the lands to which he refers. It is possible that the Deputy's question relates to commonage lands comprising 179 acres in the townland of Laharan. These lands are at present the subject of negotiations, not yet completed, with a view to acquisition by the Forest and Wildlife Service of my Department. The negotiations conducted to date indicate that the right-holders will require to retain the greater portion of the best quality lands. If and when acquisition is effected it is the intention of the service to plant that portion of the lands which becomes available to them.
