Land held for division in Mayo

Summary

The Commission held 19,543 hectares of lettable land nationally, including 822 hectares in Mayo. The Minister expected about 80 per cent of all holdings to be distributed by the end of 1984, though Mayo’s land would take longer.

Denis Gallagher Mr. D. Gallagher Fianna Fáil

asked the Minister for Agriculture the acreage of land held by the Land Commission for division in the country and in County Mayo.

How long has this land been held by the Land Commission and why is there such a delay in dividing it?

Paul Connaughton Mr. Connaughton Fine Gael

We hope that by the end of 1984 approximately 80 per cent of all land held by the Land Commission will have been distributed, but it will be some time after that before all of the land held by the commission in County Mayo will have been distributed.
