asked the Minister for Local Government whether he is aware that about 80 families in Lucan are badly in need of new houses, and whether he has received any proposals in the matter, and, if so, if he will expedite a decision thereon.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Lucan Housing Needs.
I am informed that Dublin County Council estimate that approximately 80 new houses are required to meet the present needs of working-class families in the Lucan area. I have received no proposal from the council for the provision of houses to meet these needs, but I understand that the acquisition of a site for a housing scheme is being actively considered by the council.
