Question:

382 Deputy Paul J. Connaughton asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will outline the current registered owner of a bog plot (details supplied); if he will state if this property was transferred on to an area as a result of two other pieces of turbary from another folio; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39683/11]

Written answers

Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Deputy Simon Coveney)

The first and second folios supplied are registered in the name of Bord na Mona. There is a dealing pending on both of these folios but they relate to the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government. The third folio appears to be registered in the name of the individual referred to. Appurtenant turbary rights are not mentioned on any of the three folios.
