asked the Minister for Lands if he addressed a group in County Wexford during the weekend of 20th-21st October; if he made reference to any proposals of his immediate predecessor; and, if so, if he will state what he said.

(Cavan): On Sunday afternoon, 21st October, 1973, I read a paper entitled Present and Future Trends in Land Law in Ireland to a seminar in Wexford organised by the Society of Young Solicitors.

I cannot recollect making any specific reference to proposals by my immediate predecessor.

Certainly there is no such reference in my script, a copy of which I can make available to the Deputy if he wishes.
