Would the Minister of State indicate to the House the names of the local authorities who would be entitled to apply for benefit under the revolving fund proposals which he mentioned in his reply, the requirements to be fulfilled in making application for benefit under this fund and if there are any other conditions which the Minister could indicate to the House which might be applied by his Department in deciding how this fund is to be administered?

(Dublin South-East): Although I feel that is a separate question, I would like to assure the Deputy that it is a nationwide project not particularly geared to one city or one town.

Could the Minister state the conditions to be applied in qualifying for benefit under the fund? The Minister has not replied to that?

(Dublin South-East): I heard the question and I said I felt it was a separate question. I shall be happy to answer that if a question is tabled to me.

I would like the permission of the House to move on. We have given 12 minutes to those two questions. I understand that Questions Nos. 13, 14 and 15 are for written reply. I am now calling Question No. 16.
