asked the Minister for Fisheries if he will expedite the division of the Derryfadda Bog, situate in the parish of Moyne, Co. Tipperary, and formerly owned by Mr. Smith and others, which has been purchased by the Irish Land Commission; whether he is aware that there is a great deal of unemployment in that area and that considerable employment could be provided if this bog were utilised to provide turbary.

The bog in Derryfadda will be divided by the Land Commission with the least possible delay.
