asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state in respect of the year 1956-57 (a) the amount allocated to each local authority for the purposes of the Local Authorities (Works) Act, (b) the date on which schemes were submitted for sanction, and (c) the date on which sanction was given in each case.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Local Authorities (Works) Act Allocations.
As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.

Notes:
(1) The grants above are exclusive of the special allocation of £500 in each case (£1,500 in the case of Cork County Council) for works ancillary to land project.
(2) In the case of any particular local authority, all schemes are not necessarily submitted for approval at the same time. Similarly, approvals to schemes included in any one submission do not necessarily issue at the same time. Between submission and approval correspondence with the local authority may be required in connection with some scheme or schemes. The reply, therefore, gives the dates on which schemes were initially submitted and on which formal approval issued.
(3) Urban authorities are not included in the statement as a general allocation, as in the case of county councils, to these authorities has not yet been made: it is at present in course of issue.
