asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce what is the present position in regard to the extension of rural electrification to the Hollyfort area, County Wexford.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Rural Electrification.
I am informed by the E.S.B. that the Hollyfort area, County Wexford, has been considered for development by the board but has not so far been selected as the returns for the area have not compared favourably with those for other areas still awaiting development in the Waterford district. The area will be reconsidered by the board in due course and the decision of the board will depend on how the returns for the area then compare with those for other areas still awaiting development in the Waterford district.
