asked the Minister for Local Government if he is aware that when the Tralee urban area was extended, some miles of county roads were taken over from the county council; and, if so, if he will now consider allocating a grant each year for the improvement and maintenance of these roads.
Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Maintenance of Tralee Roads.
I am aware of the position mentioned by the Deputy. It is not the practice to allocate grants from the Road Fund for work on urban roads. Grants are, however,made available annually from the Employment and Emergency Schemes Vote for such works.
