asked the Minister for Local Government when final documents for housing schemes at Ashbourne, Batterstown, Dunshaughlin, Dunboyne, Oldcastle, Slane and Summerhill, County Meath, and Agreement Scheme—Part 1 were submitted to his Department; the date on which they were sanctioned; and, if not sanctioned, why.
Final documents for the village schemes were received in my Department on the 6th and 7th of this month, while tender proposals for single rural cottages under the 1969 agreement scheme (Part 1) were received on 23rd of last month. All these proposals are under examination and my decision on them will be given as early as possible.
Did the Minister say they were received on the 6th and 7th of this month?
Yes.
That is not the information which the local authorities supplied to their members. I am only making the comment. I was not aware they were not received by you until now. I shall be coming back in a couple of weeks time with this again.
