The allocation of funds voted for the Major Resort Development Scheme is a matter for Bord Fáilte.
I am informed by Bord Fáilte that in the current financial year grants totalling £24,439 have been paid by the board towards resort development at Tramore. A further £16,799 will fall due for payment before 31st March, 1971. This will bring total Bord Fáilte expenditure on resort development works at Tramore to £285,000. I would also refer the Deputy to my replies to a number of questions put down by him in this matter on 3rd March, 1970.
