Vol. 354 No. 12

Written Answers. - Partitioning of Commonages.

347.

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will introduce legislation or make an order to ensure that where the majority of tenants in a commonage agree on its sub-division they can have it sub-divided and allocated, irrespective of whether there are objections from the minority group or otherwise and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Powers for the compulsory partitioning of commonages are already provided in the Land Acts. The use of these powers in certain cases is at present under consideration.
