Vol. 202 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Electricity Supply in Mullingar Area.

40.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power when it is expected that the ESB will connect householders in the Downs area near Mullingar, County Westmeath with electric light.

As I informed the Deputy in reply to his question of 4th April, 1963, the Electricity Supply Board have planned to re-canvass the whole country with a view to orderly development and with the object of giving those houses still unconnected the best possible terms for supply in accordance with the recent legislation. It is not possible at this stage to state an order of priority for the re-canvass of individual areas, but, to expedite re-canvass, special canvassers are being attached to each district office. Where, however, the work involved in extending supply is small, it is expected that there will be very little delay in making connection.

Persons interested in getting supply should keep in touch with their local ESB office.
