Land Commission staffing

Summary

Fitzpatrick said understaffing, especially in Cavan-Monaghan, was delaying land division. The Minister said additional staff would be appointed soon, and Fitzpatrick welcomed the assurance.

(Cavan-Monaghan): Many Land Commission offices are grossly understaffed. For instance, the Cavan-Monaghan office is at an all-time low. Until the Minister gives the Land Commission staff to carry out work on the division of land it will not be done.

This has been a problem but it is not something which happened just recenthy. The Government have considered this aspect and they will be appointing additional staff to the Land Commission offices in the very near future.
