Vol. 139 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Donegal Special Employment Grant.

asked the Minister for Finance if an application for a special employment scheme grant has been received for the replacement of the 56 year old sluice gate at Castlegoland, Narin, County Donegal; and, if so, if he will give the application his favourable consideration in view of the area of land being flooded as the result of the old sluice gate falling into decay.

I have received an application for the work referred to, but I am advised that owing to the configuration of the channel and the inadequate fall fromthe Clooney Lough to the outlet no work the Special Employment Schemes Office could undertake would be likely to solve the difficulties here.
