asked the Minister for Transport and Power when the ESB will give electricity supply to 24 families in the townland of Kilvine, Claremorris area, County Mayo.

I am informed by the Electricity Supply Board that the town of Kilvine is included in the board's Kilvine rural area which is due for final development under the rural electrification scheme in August, 1974. At that time all unsupplied householders will be visited and those interested will be quoted terms for supply. Supply will be extended as soon as possible to those who accept the terms quoted.
