Vol. 205 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Roofing Grants.

11.

asked the Minister for Local Government if he will give a grant for asbestos and galvanised iron roofing to many people who live in backward places and whose families have emigrated to England and the USA.

As I indicated to the Deputy in reply to a similar question in March, 1962, corrugated asbestos and galvanised iron are not approved roofing materials for the purpose of applications for reconstruction grants under the Housing Acts. Where these materials are so used, grants are not normally paid.
