asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health if he will state the estimated percentage increase in the cost of building materials between 1932 and the present date.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Cost of Building Materials.
The information sought by the Deputy is not available in my Department.
Is the Minister not aware of the fact that the Prices Tribunal have furnished to the Minister for Industry and Commerce a report with respect to charges for building materials? The Minister for Industry and Commerce has had that in his possession for two years, and will the Minister for Local Government be sufficiently inquisitive to ask the Minister for Industry and Commerce what is contained in that report, because I think he will find some striking allegations there?
