My Department cannot locate Q3 turbary sale agreements in respect of the persons named from a perusal of former Irish Land Commission records for the bog concerned. The persons named should make contact with the Lands Branch of my Department’s Legal Services Division which is based in Farnham Street, Cavan, Telephone 049 4368200, in order to pursue the matter further.

I have no jurisdiction to adjudicate on a private dispute between a fee simple owner and any turbary users. Where there is a dispute, resolution can be sought either by agreement between the parties concerned or by resolution through the courts.
