Vol. 321 No. 10

Written Answers. - Land Commission Acquisitions.

353.

Mr. Kenny

asked the Minister for Agriculture the name and location of all estates in the possession of the Land Commission in County Mayo; the date of acquisition in each case; the estates expected to be allocated in 1980; and the name and location of estates for which proceedings to acquire are being instituted, but which are not yet in the possession of the Commission.

Minister for Agriculture (Mr. MacSharry)

The information requested is set out in the following tables. It is hoped that in the cases marked with an asterisk on table A proposals for allotment can be finalised to permit allocation of the lands within the next six months or so.

Table A

Particulars of lettable lands (apart from insignificant residues of partly allotted properties) in the possession of the Land Commission for division

Mr. J. Ryan

asked the Minister for Agriculture if the Land Commission intend to allocate the Flanagan Estate, Curaheen, Horse and Jockey, Thurles, County Tipperary, this year.

Minister for Agriculture (Mr. MacSharry)

It is unlikely that plans for the division of the Flanagan estate can be formulated, so as to permit allocation of the lands this year.
