With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 23, 24 and 25 together.
It would not be in the public interest to disclose the exact disposition of radio equipment and vehicles as requested by the Deputy. The total number of two-way radio sets in use in County Waterford is 11. The total number of vehicles in use in June, 1960, was four and the total in use in June, 1969, was ten and the total numbers of personnel for these dates were 137 and 145.
The balance of the information sought is in the form of a tabular statement, which, again with your permission, Sir, I propose to have circulated with the Official Report.
Following is the statement:—
