Draft plans for a swimming pool submitted to me by Limerick Corporation were approved subject to some suggestions in regard to detail which were made by my Department. Since the introduction of the prototype swimming pool which I have had designed, Limerick Corporation, in common with all other sanitary authorities who propose to provide pools, have been requested to re-examine their plans in the light of the new development which makes low-cost pools a practical possibility. I am awaiting a report from the corporation on their re-examination of plans and cannot therefore say when construction of the pool is likely to commence.
