‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Land Leases. Land Commission funding and land access
Summary
Mr. Byrne raised the Land Commission’s lack of funds to buy land and the limited opportunities for small farmers as larger farmers acquire more land. The Chair ruled that these matters were outside the land-leasing question and moved on.
Is the Minister aware that the Land Commission do not have sufficient money to purchase land?
Comment on this
In some counties big farmers are getting bigger and small farmers have very little opportunity to buy land. What does the Minister intend to do about that?
Comment on this
That does not arise on this question. I ask Deputies to be reasonable and realistic.
