Vol. 209 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Tariff Reductions.

21.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce whether it is proposed to reduce tariffs by ten per cent next January.

It is proposed that there will be a further general reduction of ten per cent in the level of protective tariffs on industrial goods next January.

Can the Minister give the House any information as to the possible effect this may have on employment?

I believe it is likely to stimulate employment.

Would the Minister repeat that?

I believe it is likely to stimulate employment.

We will remember.

That is why I asked the Minister to say it a second time.

That will happen in the long run.

I hope it will, but when?
