asked the Minister for Finance if he will state the exact amount of grants allocated to each county in Connaught in the past five years out of the Special Employment Schemes Vote, setting out the amounts for each county under the following headings (1) minor employment schemes, (2) rural improvement schemes and (3) roads rural schemes.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Special Employment Schemes Grants.
As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it circulated with the Official Report.
