Vol. 238 No. 4

Ceisteanna—Questions Oral Answers. - Price of Land for Afforestation.

111.

asked the Minister for Lands why the Forestry Branch of his Department insist on offering only £2 5s 0d per acre for afforestation land in the Mastergeehy area of County Kerry; and if he will arrange that they pay a more realistic price for the land with a minimum of £5 per acre.

Lands being purchased for State afforestation purposes are valued on the basis of their capacity for timber production and the level of capital costs likely to be incurred in their development.

The Dáil adjourned at 4.15 p.m. until 3 p.m. on Tuesday, 11th February, 1969.
