Vol. 160 No. 13

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers (resumed). - Production of Floor Coverings.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state in respect of each of the years 1953, 1954 and 1955 (a) the quantity and value of floor-coverings of linoleum and similar material produced in the State, (b) the number of workers employed in the production thereof and the wages paid to them, and (c) the net profits shown, without deduction or allowances for taxation, special depreciation or reserves, by the firms concerned.

I am advised that there is only one firm engaged in the production of linoleum type floor-coverings in the State. The firm is a private concern and it would not be proper for me to disclose particulars of its business affairs.
