Mr. Desmond:
asked the Minister for Local Government if grants have been made by his Department to [1511] county council or other housing authorities under or for the purposes of (a) section 31 of Act No. 16 of 1952 or (b) section 35 of the same Act in a recent year; and, if so, if he will give particulars of the appropriate grants or subsidies and the total amount granted in a year.
Mr. Blaney:
Grants have been allocated in respect of houses erected under these sections. The total grants allocated to date and the amounts paid on foot thereof are £230,000 and £225,000, approximately. The latest grant allocation was in respect of a scheme under section 31 of 34 houses in an urban district, approved in December, 1957. Of the total allocation of £230,000, £153,000 was in respect of schemes submitted by Dublin Corporation; £71,000 in respect of schemes submitted by 11 other urban authorities and £6,000 in respect of schemes submitted by 4 county councils. The appropriate rates of grant payable are set out in the Second Schedule to the Housing (Amendment) Act, 1950.
