Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Sale of Turkey Poults.

20.

asked the Minister for Agriculture the number of turkey poults which were sold to residents in the Republic by licensed commercial turkey hatcheries in each of the calendar years 1960 to 1963 inclusive, and the number of turkey poults which were sold in the State by licensed turkey breeder hatcheries, excluding those sold by the Athenry Agricultural College, for the same period.

The information requested 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:—
