Vol. 136 No. 14

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Mayo Congestion.

asked the Minister for Lands if he is aware of the acute problem of congestion which exists in the Glenhest area, Newport, County Mayo, and, if so, what steps will be taken to relieve the plight of these uneconomic holders.

The congestion in this area is not acute as the holdings were rearranged and improved some years ago. However, the Land Commission have investigated the possibility of resuming some holdings in the district with a view to the further enlargement of the rearranged holdings. It is unlikely that any appreciable area can be made available for that purpose.
