Vol. 192 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Repair and Maintenance of Roads.

21.

asked the Minister for Local Government the amount of money levied and raised by each local authority for the repair and maintenance of roads for the years 1958-59, 1959-60 and 1960-61 and the totals for each year.

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.
