Negotiations between the Land Commission and individual tenants in connection with projected rearrangement schemes are carried out on a voluntary and confidential basis. The Deputy will appreciate that a successful rearrangement scheme requires the consent and co-operation of all the tenants involved.
I have now been informed that Mr. Barrett has co-operated in this Scheme and has accepted the Land Commission's proposals. Accordingly, I do not feel that I should publish the details of the individual proposals in this case.
