Vol. 247 No. 10

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dublin River Cleaning.

114.

asked the Minister for Local Government whether he is aware of the urgent need to clean up the unsightly stretches of the river Tolka in its course through Glasnevin and Drumcondra, Dublin, and of the health hazard of its present condition; and if he will make a grant available to have the necessary work carried out.

These are matters for attention by the sanitary authority. I have no funds at my disposal out of which a grant could be made for the purpose. I might add that steps to abate the pollution of this river are in hands.
