asked the Taoiseach if he will state for each of the years 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950 and in the year 1951 to date the number and value of the mousetraps imported.

Will the Tánaiste tell us what he meant by his nonsensical interjection last week?

They were all empty.
Is it because the mice are hard necked that the traps are hardware?
