Vol. 241 No. 13

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Report on Oil Pollution.

66.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power whether he has yet received the report of the interdepartmental committee set up by the previous Government to investigate the dangers of oil pollution along our coasts and methods of counteracting it; if not, when it is expected; and how he proposes to publicise its findings.

I have received the report of the committee and it is now being examined in my Department in consultation with the other Departments concerned with a view to formulating proposals for the consideration of the Government. It is not proposed to publish the report which contains commercial information obtained in confidence.
