It is the policy of my department to wind up all trust properties for which I have responsibility and under the Land Act 2005 I have the power to transfer these properties back to local sports clubs and groups representative of local communities. The Lands Branch of my department, located in Government Buildings, Farnham Street, Cavan can be contacted at 049 4368200 or email landsbranch@agriculture.gov.ie with regard to the specific requirements for such transfers.
