Bernard Allen
Question:293 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government if, in respect of the sale of flats and duplex apartments to local authority tenants, progress has been made in resolving the legal difficulties; the reason for the legal or administrative difficulties which cannot be overcome in view of the fact that, in inner city Dublin, flat complexes located alongside private apartment blocks are sold to individuals; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
