Vol. 181 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Export of Irish Sugar and Sugar Goods to Britain.

13.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if as a result of the recent trade talks with Britain a satisfactory solution was arrived at for removing the difficulties that have operated against the export of Irish sugar and sugar goods to Britain so that the market for £2 million worth of foreign cane sugar at present imported can be filled by Irish beet growers, thus preventing the rationing of beet acreage by Comhlucht Siúicre Éireann, Teoranta; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The matter raised in the Deputy's question is under consideration but I am not at present in a position to make a statement in regard to it.
