Vol. 141 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Duty on Wire.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he is aware that a 33? per cent. duty has now been placed on wire entering the State despite the fact that no wire will be produced here before the 1st January, 1954; and, if so, if he will take immediate steps to have this duty suspended.

The Deputy seems to have been misinformed. I understand that wire of the kind to which the duty applies is being produced and that orders are being accepted for delivery from next month onwards.
