CEISTEANNA.—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - DUTIABLE TRAFFIC AT GREENORE.

TOMAS MAC EOIN

asked the Minister for Finance if he is aware that, owing to inadequate and unsatisfactory arrangements for dealing with dutiable traffic at Greenore—involving considerable delay and additional expense to traders—inward traffic is being diverted from Greenore to ports outside the Saorstát, where better Customs facilities are provided; whether the Saorstát Customs Authorities have received repeated representations on the matter from the London, Midland and Scottish Railway Company, and what steps, if any, he intends taking to remedy a state of affairs calculated to detrimentally affect the Port of Greenore, and which reflects unfavourably on the efficiency of Saorstát administration.

Enquiries are being made into this matter, and I must ask the Deputy to postpone his question pending their completion.

When would the Minister suggest I should put the question again?

In about a week's time.
