Arising out of the Minister's reference to the filling of the vacancies, can he indicate what the position is following the filling of one vacancy in Dublin? How many vacancies still exist in the Dublin centres? In reply to my question about the funds of suitors' money, is he saying none of that is available for the Coolock Community Law Centre?

(Limerick East): I am sorry. I did not hear the first part of the question.

Which part?

(Limerick East): The part I missed.

I will start again. In reply to my last supplementary the Minister said one vacancy in Dublin has been filled. Can he tell us how many vacancies still remain to be filled in the existing Dublin legal aid centres? Can he clarify whether any of the funds of suitors' money can be made available for the Coolock Community Law Centre?

(Limerick East): I can give the Deputy the information by giving him general statistics. I will start on 1 January 1981 and take it up to 1 January 1985. There were four solicitors in Aston Place and now there are three because of the embargo. In Gardiner Street they started with three and have gone up to four. Ormonde Quay did not start until 1 January 1983. They started with eight and still have eight. It is working out pretty much on par. They are one down in Aston Place and they are one up in Gardiner Street from their start up position. I will continue to assess the position and, without breaching the principle of the embargo, fill the vacancies. Coolock will not be funded from the Legal Aid Board. Money from the funds of suitors is being provided to the Legal Aid Board. I understand from the Minister for Social Welfare that he will continue to provide grant aid to the Coolock law centre. I hope it will continue in operation because it does good work.
