I would refer the Deputy to the reply to his question No. 50 of 25th February, 1970, regarding housing needs in the Cashel urban area. I understand that the urban council are providing 20 developed sites for private houses, and that plans are being prepared by them for a scheme of 15 houses. No housing proposals involving joint action by Cashel Urban District Council and the county council have been submitted to my Department. Housing authorities generally have been made aware of the need for such co-operation particularly in the smaller urban areas.
