Vol. 316 No. 1

Written Answers. - Housing Accommodation Grants.

510.

asked the Minister for the Environment if he will increase the grants payable to charitable organisations or to individuals who propose to provide housing accommodation by the re-furnishing of existing buildings in central city areas.

I have no proposals at present for an increase in the existing scheme of house improvement grants to cater for the needs of central city areas.

However, the question of improvement of the existing housing stock, with a view to bringing it up to reasonably acceptable standards, is a matter for consideration initially by the inner city group recently established by the Government and which will report to the Minister for Economic Planning and Development.
