Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers (resumed). - Oil and Petrol Rationing.
asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will give an indication of the order of priority which will form the basis of the allocation and rationing of available petrol and oil supplies.
With the permission of An Ceann Comhairle I propose to take Questions Nos. 24 and 25 together.
I would refer the Deputy to the detailed arrangements for the rationing of petrol supplies which have already been announced. Further announcements regarding other aspects of the petroleum shortage will be made, as the need arises, from time to time.
