asked the Minister for Lands if the Land Commission have considered the propriety of dividing the Nixons Estate, Mount Prospect, Castlerahan, Ballyjamesduff, County Cavan, in view of the many local deserving applicants and of the fact that there are many uneconomic holdings in the area of less than seven acres.

31.

asked the Minister for Lands if the Land Commission have considered the propriety of dividing the Ballesty Estate, Roebuck, Mountnugent, County Cavan, in view of the many local deserving applicants and of the fact that there are many uneconomic holdings in the area of less than seven acres.

I propose, with the permission of the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, to take Questions Nos. 30 and 31 together.

There are no proceedings for acquisition of these two estates comprising an aggregate area of 220 acres but I shall have the Deputy's representations brought to the notice of the Land Commission.
