Vol. 312 No. 5

Written Answers. - Cork Development.

191.

asked the Minister for the Environment if he will arrange that extra funds will be made available to Cork city and county to ensure that the recommendations of the LUTS, which have now been incorporated in both the city and county development plan, may be implemented.

Examination of the Cork Land Use and Transportation Study involves all the bodies directly concerned with planning and development in the Cork area.

In so far as my Department are concerned, I have allocated the following road grants to Cork County Council and Cork Corporation in the current year: Cork County Council, £3,707,000; Cork Corporation, £1,708,000.

These grants include sums of £.580 million and £1.180 million to the county council and corporation, respectively, for projects recommended in the study report.

I hope to make the 1979 capital allocations for sanitary services to local authorities shortly and I will take into account the water and sewerage requirements of the Cork area, including those indicated in the study.
