asked the Minister for Local Government if he can say what steps, if any, are being taken to erect labourers cottages near the village of Aghada, in the Midleton Rural Council area, on the plots which are the property of the Council, and which have been rented to labourers during the past ten years.
WRITTEN ANSWERS. - ERECTION OF LABOURERS' COTTAGES (AGHADA, MIDLETON).
No steps are being taken in this matter, as there are no Government funds available for the purpose. The provision of additional house accommodation in the Rural District is a matter for the Council in the first instance. If they are desirous of completing their 1908 scheme, an application from them for sanction to the borrowing of the necessary monies from their treasurer will be considered.
