Written Answers. - Meath Estates.

86.

Mr. Bruton

asked the Minister for Lands the names, locations, acreages and dates of acquisition of the estates currently in the hands of the Land Commission in County Meath.

Minister for Lands (Mr. S. Flanagan)

The particulars requested are contained in a tabular statement which I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle to circulate with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:
