Vol. 196 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Agricultural Grant.

38.

asked the Minister for Local Government the total rate relief by way of agricultural grant paid last year to each rating authority, and the corresponding amounts that will fall to be paid this year.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.

Information as to the amount of the grant payable to each local authority in the current financial year is not yet available but the total amount of the grant is estimated at £8.6 m.

Following is the information in respect of the year 1961/62:—
