asked the Minister for Local Government the total amount of road grants paid to Mayo County Council in the years 1960 to 1967, inclusive.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official report.

Following is the statement:

Total amount of Road Fund grants paid to Mayo County Council to date in respect of the years 1959-60 to 1967-68 inclusive—

Payments in a particular year do not necessarily reflect the total allocated in that year.
