134.

asked the Minister for Finance the Exchequer contribution, if any, to the 68 projects in relation to the telephone service in the disadvantaged areas of the Republic, financed by the EEC Commission under the European Regional Development Fund to the extent of 59.2 million EUA between the creation of the Fund in 1975 and July, 1979.

135.

asked the Minister for Finance the Exchequer contribution, if any, to the 60 projects in relation to the roads network in the disadvantaged areas of the Republic, financed by the EEC Commission under the European Regional Development Fund to the extent of 38.7 million EUA between the creation of the Fund in 1975 and July, 1979.

With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 134 and 135 together.

The EEC financing referred to by the Deputy is based on an ERDF contribution of not more than 30 per cent of the cost of the projects in question. The remainder of the cost is borne entirely by the Exchequer.
