Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 May 2024
476. Deputy Matt Shanahan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if Land Commission records (details supplied) will be digitised and made available to the public; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21801/24]
View answerMy Department is currently working with the National Archives in relation to identifying and cataloguing Land Commission records with a view to ultimately transferring the collection to the National Archive from where the records can eventually be made available to the public. I anticipate that certain Land Commission records (e.g. Fair Rent Orders) will start transferring to the National Archive within about 2 years. Additional Land Commission records will transfer to the National Archives at scheduled intervals thereafter.
