I would refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 60 of 5th February, 1970, regarding the housing position in the South Dock and Pembroke East Wards. Since then I have given approval in principle to plans for a scheme of 70 Flats at Fenian Street which adjoins the South Dock Ward. I understand also that the corporation have prepared a layout plan for 20 flats at Power's Court. As regards the City Quay area, I would refer the Deputy to my reply to Deputy Moore's Question No. 37 of 12th November last. I am awaiting any proposal from the corporation for housing in this area. No details are available in my Department as to any proposals for housing by the corporation in the Pembroke West area.
