asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he can state when the following towns in West Cork are likely to be provided with electric current:—Roscarbery, Ballydehob, Schull, Goleen, Castletown-bere, Eyries, Allihies and Ardgroom.

The provision of an electricity supply to the villages mentioned is not contemplated in the near future as the estimated receipts would not meet the capital and other charges involved. I understand that the matter will be reconsidered from time to time as the scheme for rural electrification progresses.
