asked the Taoiseach if he will state in respect of the years 1957 and 1958 the total value of (a) imports from each country, and (b) exports to each country with which this country trades.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Value of Imports and Exports.
I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report a statement showing for the years 1957 and 1958 the value of imports from and of total exports (including re-exports) to certain countries. The list of countries in the statement includes all countries with which this country's import or export trade in either year exceeded £50,000 in value.
Following is the statement:—
