asked the Taoiseach if he will state for each year 1948 to 1958 the principal countries to which cattle, foodstuffs, raw material, and manufactured goods (other than foodstuffs) were exported.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Destination of Exports.
I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate in the Official Report two statements covering the years 1948 to 1958, one showing the values of domestic exports of live cattle and the other showing the values of domestic exports of foodstuffs and of other raw materials and manufactured goods, distinguishing in each case the principal countries of destination.
Following is the statement:—
I. VALUE of Permanent Domestic Exports of Live Cattle to principal countries in each of the years 1948 to 1958.
