Written Answers. - Meath Land Allocation.

543.

asked the Minister for Agriculture in respect of all land held by the Land Commission in County Meath the date of acquisition and the proposed date of allocation to local deserving applicants.

Minister for Agriculture (Mr. MacSharry)

The information requested is set out in the following table. It is hoped that in the cases marked with an asterisk proposals for allotment can be formulated to permit allocation of the lands in whole or in part within the next six months or so. Allotment of the remaining cases will be put in hand as soon as possible thereafter.

County Meath.
