asked the Minister for Lands if he will ascertain from the Land Commission the cause of the delay in dividing the farms acquired from Mr. Richard Kelly, Tulsk, County Roscommon, and Mr. Andrew Twohy, Tarmon, Castlerea, County Roscommon.

Because of the large volume of more urgent work in hands in County Roscommon it has not yet been found possible to prepare schemes in these cases. They will be dealt with as soon as circumstances permit.
