Vol. 349 No. 2

Written Answers. - Old People's Homes.

419.

asked the Minister for the Environment if, in view of the fact that there are numerous old people in very bad housing circumstances in the Rosslare area of County Wexford he will immediately provide the finance for the scheme of eight old peoples' homes at Rosslare.

It is a matter for individual housing authorities to plan and initiate housing schemes in their functional areas, having regard to established needs and to the capital allocation available for their house building programme.

Housing authorities, including Wexford County Council, were invited by circular letter from my Department on 15 March 1984 to submit their claims for capital allocations to finance new works which they hope to start during the remainder of this year.
