Vol. 207 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Strokestown (Roscommon) Estate.

17.

asked the Minister for Lands what progress has been made by the Land Commission towards the acquisition of the estate of Mr. T.E. King situated at Toberpatrick, , County Roscommon.

The inquiries referred to in my reply to the Deputy's previous question on 24th October last regarding this estate have been completed. Certain dealings affecting the property have resulted but for the present they must be treated as confidential.

May I take it from the Minister's reply that the Land Commission propose to acquire and give the market value for this estate?

The Deputy can take from the Minister's reply exactly what the Minister has stated.

Surely the Minister is not going to shelter behind that reply when the entire locality are anxious to know what the position is?

The Deputy's questions are impeding the interests of those concerned in the locality.
