asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state the number of houses built or reconstructed with State aid during each of the periods (a) 1st April, 1922, to 31st March, 1932, (b) 1st April, 1932, to 31st January, 1948, (c) 1st February, 1948, to 31st May, 1951, and (d) 1st June, 1951, to 31st May, 1954.
