The information requested in respect of the current financial year is not yet available in my Department.
asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state the amounts advanced to borrowers under the Small Dwellings (Acquisition) Acts, during 1953-54 and 1954-55, and the estimated amount to be advanced in the current financial year.
The amounts advanced to borrowers under the Small Dwellings (Acquisition) Acts in 1953-1954 and 1954-55 were £3,694,218 and £3,909,822 respectively. The estimated amount to be advanced in the current financial year is £4,000,000.
Is it possible to segregate Dublin from the rest of the country in connection with these figures?
If the Deputy puts down a question to that effect, I shall give him the information.
