asked the Minister for Finance if he will state in respect of each of the years 1939 to 1951 the amount of money spent on (a) minor employment schemes; (b) bog development schemes and (c) rural improvement schemes, by the Special Employment Schemes Office in County Galway.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Special Employment Schemes in Galway.
As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, to have it circulated with the Official Report.
Following is the statement:—
