Arthur Spring (Kerry North-West Limerick, Labour)

It is envisaged that the Government, in the course of its term in office, will have to introduce legislation to deal with regional aid and the boundary changes that are to take place. I understand the Commissioner for Regional Policy, Mr. Hahn, will be in Ireland this week. Inequalities exist throughout this country whereby, for example, grant aid can be provided to the Border, midlands and west, BMW, region but not to County Kerry, where I understand the Taoiseach will be meeting the Commissioner.
