Ceist:263 Mr. Connaughton asked the Minister for the Environment Heritage and Local Government the reason his Department is refusing to pay a site subsidy for affordable housing at Portumna, County Galway and west-side Fana Burca, Knocknacarra; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that without the subsidy many applicants will be unable to repay the loan; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
