asked the Minister for Lands (a) the number of estates acquired by the Land Commission in Sligo-Leitrim constituency which are awaiting allocation, (b) the names of those estates, (c) the acreage of each estate and (d) the date on which division of each estate is expected to take place.

Land Commission records are not compiled by reference to constituency areas. For Counties Sligo and Leitrim, the particulars requested at (a) (b) and (c) are contained in a tabular statement which I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate with the Official Report.
As regards (d), it is not possible at present to indicate when the individual estates mentioned will be allocated but there will be no avoidable delay.
Following is the statement:
PARTICULARS of estates in Counties Sligo and Leitrim pending for allocation by the Land Commission—apart from turbary, insignificant residues of allotted properties and lands transferred in exchange.
