Mr. Ryan
It is not clear from the Deputy's question to what type of import licence he refers.
I am not aware that there have been any avoidable delays in the granting of import licences in general. I am satisfied that applications are dealt with as expeditiously as possible.
If the Deputy will furnish particulars of any cases where there appeared to be undue delay in dealing with applications, I will have the matter looked into.
