Dr. Ryan
I propose to deal with Questions Nos. 9, 10 and 11 together.
The processes of valuing samples drawn from all the packages of tobacco of the 1934 crop packed by the several rehandlers, and of preparing catalogues of such packages are at present being carried out and I am not, therefore, in a position to reply to the Deputy's questions. Full particulars of the total sum due to him for his tobacco, including his share of the bonus, will be supplied to each licensed grower by his rehandler as soon as possible after the completion of the catalogues.
