Question 559: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the position regarding the provision of funding for the refurbishment, including the roofing, of houses at Glenma, Croom, County Limerick which were constructed by the National Housing Agency in 1974 under the guaranteed order programme in view of the fact that they are substandard and that home insurance is not available and that schemes were introduced elsewhere to improve the standard of similarly built houses.

On 20 July 2004, my Department issued approval to Limerick County Council to progress works to the 8 council owned houses and 23 of the privately owned houses in the estate. It remains a matter for the local authority to advance these works. I understand that the contracts were recently signed in respect of a number of the units involved and that work has commenced on the site.
