Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Trade with EEC and EFTA Countries.

11.

asked the Taoiseach if he will state for each of the past five years the volume and value of imports and exports between this country and (a) each country of the EEC and (b) each country of the EFTA.

With your permission, Sir, I propose to circulate in the Official Report a statement showing the value of imports and exports between this country and each of the member countries of EEC and EFTA in each year 1961 to 1965. Volume data (i.e. trade valued at constant prices) are not available in respect of trade with individual countries.

Following is the statement:

VALUE OF TRADE WITH E.E.C. AND E.F.T.A. COUNTRIES 1961—65.
