asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health whether, when he is allocating relief grants to local authorities, he will make arrangements whereby such grants may be utilised for the clearance of building sites for housing schemes, and thus render possible the development of many schemes which could not be otherwise undertaken.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - ALLOCATION OF BUILDING GRANTS.
