Vol. 56 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dublin Housing Scheme.

asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health whether his attention was directed to a resolution adopted by the Dublin Trade Union Council protesting against the erection of one or two-roomed flats under the Iveagh Trust Scheme; whether State grants were applied for in connection with this scheme; and, if so, whether it is his intention to indicate at once his attitude towards the proposals sponsored by the Trust.

My attention was directed to the resolution in question. State grants are not available for the erection of one or two-room flats by the Trust. Further, I understand that it is not the intention of the Trust to provide such flats.

Are not these two-room flats a great boon to old people?

Yes, if kept for old people.
