Vol. 331 No. 12

Written Answers. - Afforestation Land.

421.

asked the Minister for Fisheries and Forestry the amount of land acquired since July 1981 in each of the 26 counties for afforestation purposes; and the acreage and location of the land.

, (Cavan-Monaghan): The reply is in the form of a tabular statement which I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate with the Official Report.
