I am informed by Dublin Corporation that the total number of dwellings, intended for renting which were under construction by Dublin Corporation on 31st May last was 2,134 located as follows:—

|
Georges Place |
60 |
|
Powerscourt |

|
Charlemont Street |
168 |
|
Ballymun |

I understand from the corporation that they hope to have work commenced before the end of 1968 on the erection of approximately 200 dwellings in the Kilbarrack East housing area; on an extension of the Ballymun housing project and on a further 1,000 approximately dwellings on various other sites in the city.
I have called Question No. 40.
Did I hear the Minister correctly when he said they were housing people in Constitution Hill? Are they not flats?
Flats are dwellings.
I asked for houses.
The Deputy got a bit more than he asked for: he got dwellings.
Will the Minister say what the delay is in Coolock?
There is no question of any delay. I was asked for the total number of non-purchase houses.
