Vol. 324 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Road Maintenance Grants.

37.

Mr. T.J. Fitzpatrick

(Cavan-Monaghan) asked the Minister for the Environment if he will give details in respect of each local authority of grants for the improvement of roads in each of the last five years and in 1980 to-date.

Mr. Fahey

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:
