asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health whether he will state the cause of the delay in erecting a new bridge at Caherciveen, Co.

The delay in this case was due largely to the difficulty of obtaining suitable tenders. Amended plans were received in the Department on the 4th November, 1929, and were approved on the 13th November and the county council notified accordingly on the 18th November. As far as the Department is concerned tenders may now be invited in connection with the work.
