asked the Minister for Fisheries whether he will state the number of estates in County Wexford purchased under the Land Act. 1923, and the number of those estates vested up to date.

It is presumed that the Deputy's question relates to tenanted land coming under the purchase provisions of the Land Acts, 1923-7.

Schedules of particulars and maps of the holdings have been lodged in the Land Commission in respect of 296 estates in County Wexford. 66 estates have been published in Provisional Lists of lands which will vest in the Land Commission, and of these 41 estates have been vested.
