The erection of the poultry-house and piggery is part of the work for which the grant is ordinarily given and it would involve special reports on individual cases to furnish figures as to the numbers of cases in which the houses have been completed but in which these outbuildings have not yet been completed.
Do the figures which the Parliamentary Secretary has just quoted represent the total number of house built under the Housing (Gaeltacht) Acts up to 31st March, 1932, and the total number built up to 30th September, 1934?
Yes.
