I am not clear as to the particular class of road which the Deputy has in mind. The cost of roads provided by housing authorities as part of their housing schemes is assisted from State funds as part of the subsidisable capital cost. As regards county council cottages located in "accommodation" roads not maintainable by the road authorities, there are no grants available from my Department for taking over such roads.
