With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 105, 106 and 107 together.
The total amount of money granted by the State to the University Colleges for the purposes of buying land or sites and to meet costs arising from the erection and/or extension of buildings during the period 1952 to 1962 was as follows:—

The total of State grants paid to University College, Dublin, in respect of site acquisition, site development and buildings at Belfield up to 31st March, 1962, was £230,010.
