Vol. 189 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Expenditure on Special Employment Schemes.

11.

asked the Minister for Finance the annual expenditure on special employment schemes for each of the years ended 31st March, 1954 to 1961, inclusive.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.
