asked the Minister for Local Government if he is aware that the Kerry County Council have decided to cut turf again this year in Bawnmore bog, Listowel, County Kerry; and, if so, if he will now state if he will reconsider the application made for a grant last year to make a road into this bog for the removal of the turf produced.

I am aware that the Kerry County Council intend to cut turf this year, but I have not been informed what bogs it is proposed to use. I have received no application this year for a grant for development work on Bawnmore bog. If the council wish to have this matter further considered, it will be necessary for them to make a fresh application referable to the relevant works programmes for the current financial year.
