asked the Minister for Transport and Power when it is proposed to extend rural electrification to the Drumdoo area in the Mohill district of County Leitrim.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Rural Electrification in County Leitrim.
27.
I am informed by the E.S.B. that the Drumdoo rural area has been considered by the Board from time to time for development under the Rural Electrification Scheme but has not been successful.
The Board are not in a position to say when supply may be extended to the area.
The position of areas which will not have received supply when the present Rural Electrification Scheme is completed this year has been under active consideration and I hope to be in a position to make a statement on the matter at an early date.
Can the Minister indicate how early it will be?
I would say during the course of this or the next session.
Thank you.
