asked the Minister for Local Government if Dublin Corporation will provide suitable plots in the Finglas area to the Allotment Holders Association who are being dispossessed of their holdings at Bellevue, Finglas.

It is a matter for Dublin Corporation to decide what allotments, if any, they should provide. I understand, however, that the corporation are trying to secure an alternative site for the allotments which were available at the Bellevue site now required for housing.

Is the Parliamentary Secretary aware that this is the second time the Allotment Holders Association have been dispossessed by the corporation and would he encourage the corporation to provide a site for them as soon as possible?

Yes.
