Vol. 214 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - National Incomes Statistics.

1.

asked the Taoiseach if, further to his recent statement in the House regarding the proportion of national income spent on health services in this country and the member countries of the EEC, he will state in the case of this country, each of the EEC countries, Britain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Yugoslavia, in so far as such information is available to him, the total national income for 1963.

I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate, in the Official Report, a statement giving the information required.

Following is the statement:
