asked the Minister for Finance if he will state, in respect of Counties Donegal, Mayo, Galway and Kerry, respectively, the number of employment schemes sanctioned at 15th November, 1955.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Employment Schemes.
I assume that what the Deputy requires is particulars of all schemes sanctioned from the Employment and Emergency Schemes Vote, 1955-56, in the counties in question as at the date referred to. As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it circulated with the Official Report.
Following is the statement:—
|
Co. Donegal |
