asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health if his attention has been called to the condition of the Ballyconnell and Ballinamore Canal, and if he has received a report on same; and if he will state what action he proposes to take in the matter in the interest of public health in the locality.
Written Answer. - Ballyconnell and Ballinamore Canal.
As regards the first part of the question, I would refer the Deputy to the reply I gave to a similar question on the 14th ultimo. As regards the second and third parts, I obtained a report from the county medical officer of health on 24th ultimo in which he stated that the sanitary conditions then prevailing along the river and canal were satisfactory.
