Vol. 239 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Road Grants.

9.

asked the Minister for Local Government the total amount of the road grant in respect of each year since 1964-65 for each county council.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to have it circulated with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:

NOTES:—

(a) These figures include special grants allocated chiefly for bridge works and for other purposes not financed out of the normal annual grant allocations.

(b) These figures include the grants allocated (to date in 1968-69) to Dublin County Council out of block allocations made available for improvement works on arterial roads in the Dublin area.
