§ MR. WILLIAM MCKILLOP (Sligo, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the Congested Districts Board purchased a grazing ranch at Knocklane, Magherow, county Sligo, and that instead of dividing the ranch amongst the fishermen and the occupiers of non-economic holdings in the vicinity the Board has let it for grazing; and will he see that this ranch is divided up as soon as possible.
§ MR. WALTER LONGThe Board have agreed to purchase these lands, but cannot divide them until they become legally vested in the Board. The 1129 necessary proceedings will take some months, and in the meantime the lands have been let for grazing.
