asked the Minister for Lands the total number of estates held by the Land Commission in County Monaghan; the names of these estates; the acreage involved; and the names and total acreages of those which are proposed to be divided in 1972.

The particulars requested are contained in a tabular statement which, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to circulate with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:

County Monaghan

PARTICULARS of arable lands (apart from insignificant residues of partly allotted properties and lands transferred in exchange) in the possession of the Land Commission for division.

*Already partly allotted.

NOTE: It is not possible at present to indicate when the individual Estates listed will be allotted but there will be no avoidable delay. It is hoped to allocate some 350 acres this Spring.
