Vol. 374 No. 7

Written Answers. - Cavan Land Division.

91.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the number of estates which were divided last year in County Cavan, the number remaining; the length of time these estates are awaiting division; when it is intended to complete the division of these estates; if his attention has been drawn to the problems experienced by young farmers trying to build a viable holding while awaiting these divisions; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Eighteen estates were disposed of in County Cavan last year and 85 remain for disposal. These estates came into Land Commission ownership at varying dates between 1975 and 1986. Under the terms of a Bill to be circulated shortly, it is hoped that disposal of all land remaining in the possession of the Land Commission can be expedited.
