asked the Minister for Lands if he will now state what steps, if any, are being taken by the Land Commission to provide economic holdings for the ten tenants on the Ward estate, Kilscoghagh, Crossboyne County Mayo, whose poor law valuations are under £3 each.

I am not yet in a position to add anything to the reply to the Deputy's previous question of the 6th February last in this matter. The resumption proceedings mentioned in that reply are still before the commissioners.
