asked the Minister for Local Government whether he is aware that the Gort District Council abandoned the building of nine labourers' cottages during the European War for want of funds; whether the proposed tenants of these cottages are presently living in houses unfit for habitation, and when he will be prepared to advance such sums as may be necessary to proceed with the completion of said cottages.
