Vol. 238 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Irish Registered Ships.

7.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power the number and tonnage of ships, excluding fishing craft, on the Irish Register on 1st January, 1969; and the number and tonnage (a) in coastal and near continental trades and (b) in oceanic trades.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to have it circulated with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:
