asked the Taoiseach if he will state the amount and value of the hydrated lime imported in each of the years 1930 to date, the places from which it was imported and where imported by sea, the port through which it was imported.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Hydrated Lime Imports.
I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement showing the imports of bydrated lime in each of the years 1938 to 1951, showing country of origin. The import figures previous to 1938 are not available nor are the details by port of importation.
Following is the statement:—
IRELAND.
