There is no record in my Department of the sanctioning or payment of any grant or loan to the firm mentioned. However, as the question relates to a flour milling firm, the Deputy will be aware that this firm, in common with all other flour milling firms, benefited from payments of flour subsidy distributed by Grain Importers, Ltd., during the years from 1941 until 1957, when the subsidy was discontinued.
