It would be contrary to general practice to publish statistics relating specifically to individual concerns. I, therefore, propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement showing, in the Official Report a statement showing, in the detail prescribed in the Official Export List, the number and value of new passenger and commercial motor vehicles exported to each country of final destination in the periods referred to in the question.
Following is the statement:—
DOMESTIC exports of new passenger cars and new commercial motor vechicles in the years ended 28th February, 1957 and 1958.
