Vol. 321 No. 5

Written Answers. - County Wicklow Estates.

399.

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will outline the following information in relation to each estate held by the Land Commission in County Wicklow (i) location, (ii) acreage, (iii) date of acquisition, (iv) proposed date of allotment and (v) if allotment will be by division or in full.

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 finalised to permit allocation of the lands within the next 12 months. It is likely that, with the exceptions of the Leather Products Estates and the O'Brien estate, all the cases marked will be allotted in more than one parcel.

Particulars of lettable lands (apart from insignificant residues of partly allotted properties) in the possession of the Land Commission for division.
