Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (Ms Harney)

I propose to take Questions Nos. 145 and 148 together.

The amount of land sold by Shannon Development for housing development during the five year period 1994-8 was 18.76 acres. The amount of money received from these sales was £497,006.
