asked the Minister for Agriculture if he is aware that employment has been given to men in the Tipperary Town Creamery (formerly Cleeves) who are not members of a trades union and whether in view of the dissatisfaction caused as a result he will take steps to insure that for further appointments trade union labour only will be employed.

I understand that the Deputy refers to the creamery at Tipperary controlled by the Dairy Disposal Company. As the matter concerned is at present under consideration by that Company, I am of the opinion that public reference to it at the moment is not in the interests of either of the parties concerned.
