asked the Minister for Lands and Agriculture whether the Land Commission have taken any steps to acquire the townlands of Cabinhill, Brownstown and Rackinstown, the property of Patrick Thunder, Lagore, Ratoath, Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, and whether the acquisition and division of the said lands will be expedited.

Proceedings have been taken for the acquisition of the untenanted land on the estate of Patrick Thunder, Lagore, County Meath, under the provisions of the Land Act of 1923.

The matter is being dealt with as expeditiously as possible.
