Vol. 209 No. 12

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Savings Statistics.

79.

(South Tipperary) asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs the annual deposits, withdrawals and balance on hands for the past seven years in respect of the Post Office Savings Bank, the Trustee Savings Bank and savings certificates.

The reply is in the form of a tabular statement which, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I propose to have circulated with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—
