Vol. 89 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Bicycle Tyres and Tubes.

asked the Minister for Supplies whether he is aware that retailers of bicycle tyres and tubes are finding increasing difficulty in securing supplies, and if he will hold out any hope of an early easement of the supply position.

The answer to the first part of the Deputy's question is in the negative. The first issue to retailers of cycle tyres and tubes for the year 1943 has just been completed and it is intended that further issues will be made at intervals during the year, according as the tyres and tubes become available. As I informed the Dáil on February 3rd, it is anticipated that the quantities of cycle tyres available for general distribution during the present year will be somewhat greater than the quantities which were available during 1942.
