asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health if he will state the number of housing schemes submitted to his Department by local authorities which are still awaiting his sanction.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Housing Schemes.
My Department has received from local bodies particulars of 18 schemes in the preliminary stage under the Labourers Acts and 53 under the Housing of the Working Classes Acts. The number of schemes fully prepared and undergoing examination in the Department is nine.
Will the Minister say what is the total number of houses involved in these schemes?
I could not say.
