asked the Minister for Local Government the reasons for the continued delay in vesting in the applicant (name supplied) of cottage No. 8/1 Baltinglass under the Wicklow County Council Cottage Purchase Scheme, having regard to the fact that in a reply of 3rd December, 1963 he stated that he understood that the necessary documents were being prepared and that the Council expected to be in a position to vest it in the then near future.

My reply of the 3rd December, 1963, was based on information supplied by Wicklow County Council at that time. I am now informed that the cottage has not yet been vested and that the delay is due to a number of factors including a shortage of technical staff to deal with the considerable backlog of applications. I understand that the rate of vesting has improved during the current financial year and I have asked that the particular case to which the Deputy refers be dealt with as quickly as possible.
