91.

Mr. Molloy

asked the Minister for the Environment if he will give details of the financial allocation to each local authority under each heading in 1988 and 1989.

Minister for the Environment (Mr. Flynn)

The rate support grant allocations to local authorities for 1988 and 1989 are set out in my reply to Question No. 253 of 19 October 1988.

Apart from certain types of road grants, the 1989 allocations to local authorities for various services have not yet been determined.
