asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state in respect of each county for the year 1949-50 the number of applications for grants under the Local Authorities (Works) Act, the number sanctioned, and the expenditure.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.
The following is the statement:—

NOTES: |

|
1. It is not practicable to give the number of individual schemes submitted in respect of each county. The total cost of schemes submitted for execution in the year is given instead, together with the amount of grant allocated. |

|
2. Final certified returns are not yet available for all local authorities. Where the figures given in the last column are not final, they are a reasonably accurate estimate. |
