Vol. 111 No. 13

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers - Caherciveen Cottages.

asked the Minister for Local Government whether he is aware of the necessity for the immediate erection of not less than 40 cottages in Caherciveen and, if so, whether he will state (a) if sanction has been granted for their erection; (b) whether the sites have been selected and purchased by the local authority and (c) when the work of building is likely to begin.

Mr. Murphy

Housing needs in Caherciveen have been estimated at 39 cottages and a scheme is in preparation for the provision of 34 of these. This scheme has not yet been submitted for my approval, but I understand that the housing authority have selected the necessary sites, and in default of agreement with the owners, propose to acquire them by compulsory purchase. In the circumstances, I cannot forecast when building will commence.
