Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Road Grants.
As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.
Following is the statement:

Would the Minister say whether it is clear from the tabular statement he proposes to circulate that the rate in the £ for many councils in respect of roads is increasing annually in relation to the road grants being made available by his Department?
I think the Deputy had better wait until he gets the report.
Is it not clear from the circulated reply?
There are a lot of figures. The question the Deputy asked is a very complicated one. I am afraid he will have to wait until he gets it. Of course he can put down a question again next week.
