Vol. 136 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Labourers' Cottages.

asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state the number of labourers' cottages in each county and the number of such cottages which has been vested in the tenants.

The latest date for which statistics are available in respect of the Deputy's question is the 31st March, 1952. As the information as at that date is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—
