1.

asked the Taoiseach the total sales of cement on the home market in January and February, 1976, and January and February, 1977; and the percentage change.

The total sales of cement on the home market in January and February, 1976, were 211,600 metric tonnes. Provisional figures for January and February, 1977, total 186,100 metric tonnes. This represents a drop of 12 per cent between the two periods.

Very disturbing figures.

They are building houses without cement.

Smuggling them across the border.
