Vol. 160 No. 7

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Phoenix Park Fuel Reserve.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce whether over the period 18th February, 1948 to 13th June, 1951, any portion of the fuel reserve which had been accumulated in the Phoenix Park prior to the first mentioned date had been disposed of by sale or issue to Government Departments or companies or other bodies established under an Act of the Oireachtas; and, if so, if he will state the quantity and value of the reserve fuel thus dealt with.

I am advised by Fuel Importers, Limited that as some of their records for the period to which the Deputy's question relates are not readily available, it will take some time to obtain the information sought. I would, therefore, ask the Deputy to repeat his question in 14 days' time.

Will that be before the dissolution?

The Deputy was very near being dissolved at the last election.
