Vol. 173 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Exports of Wheat.

3.

asked the Taoiseach if he will state (a) the amount of wheat exported from 1st September, 1958, to date, (b) the country to which it was exported, and (c) the price paid.

I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement showing the quantity, value and average (c.i.f.) price of wheat, excluding seeds for sowing, exported in each month September, 1958, to January, 1959, and distinguishing the countries to which it was exported.

Following is the statement:—

DOMESTIC Exports of Wheat (excluding seeds for sowing) from 1st September, 1958 to 31st January, 1959.
