Vol. 22 No. 17

CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - ACQUISITION OF DONEGAL ESTATE.

asked the Minister for Fisheries if he can state what are the recommendations of the Land Commission's Inspector regarding the acquisition of Mrs. Porter's estate, Fahan, County Donegal, and in the same Inspector's reports on other estates visited by him in the Inishowen area of Donegal.

The Commissioners have under consideration the question of making an offer to purchase the lands referred to, and it is expected that the offer will issue very soon.

Inspectors' reports are confidential documents, and I am not prepared to disclose their contents.

Is the Minister aware that one of the tenants living on this estate for the past thirty years has got notice to quit and an order has been served upon him to that effect?

I am not aware of that, but I am aware that proceedings have been taken for the acquisition of this land and that everything possible is being done to expedite the matter.
