asked the Minister for Local Government the number of labourers' cottages erected by local authorities in each county, and the number and percentage of such cottages already vested in each county.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Labourers' Cottages.
As the reply includes a tabular statement I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.
The figures in the statement relate to the period up to 31st March, 1962, as returns of the numbers of cottages vested in the period ended 31st March, 1963, have not been received from a number of local authorities.
Following is the statement:—
