Vol. 475 No. 5

Written Answers - Grant Payments.

Michael Finucane

Question:

129 Mr. Finucane asked the Minister for the Environment the grant-aid provided by his Department for roads, housing and other infrastructural developments carried out in 1995 and 1996 in County Wexford; the individual projects; and the level of grant aid involved. [5324/97]

The information sought is not readily available in the format requested and its compilation would involve a disproportionate amount of time and work. The following table gives details of 1995 and 1996 expenditure by my Department for capital programmes and services in County Wexford.
