Vol. 159 No. 11

asked the Taoiseach if he will state the total quantity of eggs exported to (a) Great Britain, and (b) the continental countries, in the period 1st January, 1956, to the latest date for which statistics are available.

I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement giving the desired information.
