I propose to take Questions Nos. 150 and 151 together.
The management, maintenance and improvement of their dwellings is the responsibility of local authorities. Information on the number and type of dwellings in each county which require refurbishment on the number of the dwellings which have been refurbished at any particular point in time and on unit costs is not readily available in my Department and the compilation of the information would require a disproportionate amount of staff resources. The capital funding which has been drawn by authorities under the remedial works scheme to the end of 1989 is set out in the statement below. The 1990 applications will be notifed to authorities shortly.
In the case of Dara Park, approval issued last month to the seeking of tenders for phase 3 which will involve work on up to 60 dwellings.
