asked the Minister for Fisheries if steps will be taken to acquire the Parker-Hutchinson Estate at Timoney, Roscrea, Co. Tipperary, for the purpose of enlarging the uneconomic holdings in that district; and if he will state the number of acres which Mr. Parker-Hutchinson holds at Timoney, at Castlelough, Nenagh, and other places.

I should be glad if the Deputy would repeat this question this day week, as I have not at the moment sufficient information for reply, and it has been found necessary to make inquiries locally.
