Vol. 196 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Mayo Non-Public Roads Expenditure.

16.

Mr. Browne

asked the Minister for Finance the approximate expenditure upon non-public roads, including grants under the Rural Improvements Scheme, the Bog Development Scheme and the Special Employment Schemes in the (a) Ballina and (b) Swinford electoral areas of County Mayo in each of the financial years 1959-60 and 1960-61.

Expenditure figures are not readily available except on a county basis, and no records are kept in relation to county electoral areas. I am, therefore, giving the amounts authorised to be expended in the former rural districts of Ballina and Swinford. These are in the form of a tabular statement which I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report.

Following is the statement:
