asked the Minister for Local Government if he will state whether he has received proposals from the Cork County Council in connection with a non-municipal housing scheme for West Cork, and, if so, what is the present position in the matter.

It is presumed that the Deputy's question relates to the third non-municipal housing scheme in West Cork which, I understand, has been under consideration by the Cork County Council for some time past. No proposals in respect of this scheme have yet been submitted to the Department.
