The commonage shares in question relates to a migration and voluntary re-arrangement scheme undertaken by the former Land Commission and for which I now have responsibility. According to the records in my Department, there are three 1/16th shares on hands to be allotted. The person named has been offered one of these but has refused to accept it. Examination of the records does not support the contention of the person named that he is entitled to the three 1/16th shares. A Scheme has been approved allotting one share to the person named and my Department will contact him shortly in this regard.
