Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Imports of Oats and Barley.

asked the Taoiseach if he will state whether quantities of oats and barley were imported recently; and, if so, if he will indicate the countries of origin, the quantity imported and the price per barrel in each case.

I intend, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement giving the required information on oats and barley imported in each of the months September, October and November, 1953.

Following is the statement:—
