Vol. 248 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Atlas of Ireland.

43.

asked the Minister for Education whether his Department will make a generous contribution towards the cost of the preparation of the new atlas of Ireland being prepared by the Royal Irish Academy; and, if so, how much and when.

This matter will be considered in the normal way in connection with the determination of the appropriate provision to be made in the Estimates for 1971-72 for the purposes of the grant-in-aid to the Royal Irish Academy.

Will the Minister have regard to the inadequate geographical aids which exist for schools, and indeed for all activities, and ensure that a generous grant is given for this overdue work?

I shall take all these matters into consideration when arranging the grant for the academy.
