Vol. 346 No. 9

Written Answers. - Land Commission Lands.

603.

asked the Minister for Agriculture the total amount of land in the hands of the Land Commission in County Westmeath; the name and acreage of each estate; the date each was acquired; when it is expected to divide each estate; if he is aware that the houses on the estates are deteriorating and that the land is also deteriorating, because people with land on the 11 months system have no encouragement to improve the land, but use it to the utmost within the 11 months; and if he will make an order to have all land in the hands of the Land Commission divided before the end of 1984.

604.

asked the Minister for Agriculture the total amount of land in the hands of the Land Commission in County Longford; the name and acreage of each estate; the date each was acquired; when it is expected to divide each estate; if he is aware that the houses on the estates are deteriorating; and that the land is also deteriorating, because people with land on the 11 months system have no encouragement to improve the land, but use it to the utmost within the 11 months; and if he will make an order to have all land in the hands of the Land Commission divided before the end of 1984.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 603 and 604 together.

The information requested is set out on the attached table. It is not possible to state when all the properties listed will be disposed of but it is hoped that those marked with an asterisk will be wholly or partly allotted within the next six months or so.

The Land Commission have standing instructions to dispose of all land and buildings as quickly as possible following acquisition. To this end I have assigned additional inspectors to work in counties Westmeath and Longford with a view to speeding up the allocation programme in these counties. However, having regard to the amount of land on hands and the staff resources available, it would not be possible to have all the lands divided before the end of 1984.
