Vol. 143 No. 15

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Fire Clay Drainage Pipes.

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will arrange for a supply of fire clay pipes to applicants for grants under the land reclamation scheme, as in peat soils stone drains are unsatisfactory in that they tend to sink and are difficult to lay, while sod drains do not stand up to the weight of tractors now universally used.

I regret that it is not practicable to arrange as the Deputy suggests. In this connection I would refer him to the answer given to a question by Deputy Finucane on 30th January, 1952.
