asked the Taoiseach if he will state (a) the amount and value of leather and tanned skins exported during the past 12 months, and (b) the amount and value of leather products exported during the same period.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Exports of Leather and Tanned Skins.
I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement giving the required information. In the case of other leather manufactures the amount is not shown as value only is required to be stated for this heading in the official export list.
Following is the statement:—
IRELAND.
