Summary
No specific 1977 allocation was made for the Cork section; the council may use its increased general Road Fund and block grants for improvements.
asked the Minister for Local Government the allocation made by his Department this year to carry out improvements on the Cork section of the Mallow-Killarney road.
Comment on this
I have not made a specific allocation to Cork County Council for the improvement of this section of the road in 1977. I have increased the total of the council's Road Fund grants for 1977 to £1,945,000, almost £½ million over the grants for 1976. The council are at liberty to carry out improvement works with the aid of their block grant which itself has been increased by £100,000 to £664,000.
