Vol. 193 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Housing Survey.

22.

asked the Minister for Local Government if he will give the names of the local authorities who have (a) submitted the result of the housing survey requested by him in his circular of 14th May, 1960, and (b) not submitted the result; and if he will state the results of the survey so far submitted, giving each local authority separately.

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.

Following is the statement:
