asked the Minister for Local Government whether he has received plans in relation to houses at Clonroche, and, if so, if he will issue sanction without delay.

Plans for two houses in the village of Clonroche were approved by my Department on the 3rd February last. A proposal to accept a tender for the erection of the houses was submitted by Wexford County Council on the 30th ultimo. Certain information regarding the prospective tenants was requested on the 9th instant and a reply is awaited.
