asked the Minister for the Environment the number of houses built in 1984 by voluntary housing organisations; and the counties in which they were erected.

asked the Minister for the Environment the number of houses erected in 1984 under the co-operative housing scheme; the counties which were involved in this scheme; and if he is satisfied with the assistance given by local authorities.

I understand that a total of 210 houses were provided in 1984 by co-operative groups operating in Counties Cork, Dublin and Wexford. In December last a circular was sent by my Department to all local authorities urging them to provide every possible advice, encouragement and assistance to co-operative groups and outlining the various ways in which this could be done, including the nomination of a liaison officer by each authority.
