I presume the Deputy is referring to the publication "Agriculture in the Second Programme for Economic Expansion". 4,500 copies were printed, of which 1,300 have been sold and 2,600 distributed as free copies. A total of 3,900 copies has therefore been put into circulation and a balance of 600 copies remains in stock.
The total cost of printing and publishing was £1,650. It is not possible to put a figure on the cost of distribution.
