A preliminary proposal submitted by Ballina Urban District Council for the erection of a public sanitary convenience at Ham Bridge is at present under consideration in my Department. I hope to be in a position to convey my decision shortly.
Is the Minister aware that this matter has been a long time in the hands of the Department and will he now take the necessary steps to give a favourable decision?
That is what we are about to do. Does the Deputy object?
May I take it that it will be favourable?
It depends on whether there is a by-election in the offing. Would it be swapped for the biscuit factory in Ballina?
You never know. If you people want it badly enough, we will let you have it.
