Vol. 21 No. 18

CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - RELIEF SCHEMES GRANT—A CO. LEITRIM CLAIM.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will consider the allocation of a sum from the Relief Schemes Grant of £150,000 to repair the road in the townland of Knockacullion, Drumshambo, County Leitrim, on the estate of W.J.L. Peyton, seeing that this is a very poor district and that work is badly needed there.

I regret that I have not sufficient information to enable me to arrive at a decision on this question. If, however, a detailed scheme is submitted to the Land Commission, it will be considered on its merits in the light of all the relevant circumstances.

Has the Minister for Finance received a copy of the resolution passed by the Leitrim County Council at their last meeting drawing attention to the urgent need for a share of the grants of the County Leitrim, and will he give immediate and sympathetic consideration to the request contained in the resolution?

I have not seen a copy of the resolution.
