While the incidence of air polution in an expanding city like Dublin with its increasing industrialisation is a matter which requires and is receiving attention there is no cause for great concern. Draft interim regulations dealing with the heavier smoke emissions are in the final stage of preparation and comments will be invited from interested persons or bodies by public advertisement before the regulations are made. It is not proposed to set up an advisory body as envisaged by the Deputy.
