asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state in respect of each local authority at the latest available date (i) the estimated housing requirements, (ii) the number of houses at present under construction, (iii) the number of houses for which tenders are being sought, and (iv) the number of houses for which tenders are about to be sought.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Building of Houses.
46.
Up to date information as to (i) in the Deputy's question is not available. When the survey of unfit housing has been completed, it is my intention to have an estimate of their gross housing requirements made by each housing authority. Information as to (iv) is not usually available in my Department.
As to (ii) and (iii), the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, which I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate with the Official Report.
Following is the statement:
