asked the Minister for Finance if he is aware of the comments attributed to the managing director of Seafield Gentex Limited that the Minister has given information to the Dáil which was "significantly incorrect"; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I assume that the Deputy is referring to comments in an article in Business and Finance of 10th November, 1977. I do not accept that in answer to a question tabled by Deputy Donegan on 12th October last I gave the Dáil information which was “significantly incorrect” or indeed in any way incorrect in regard to the affairs of Castleguard Textiles Limited or Seafield Gentex Limited. The Deputy will recollect that in answer to a more comprehensive question by him on 24th November on the same subject, I provided fuller details in regard to the loans provided to this group by Fóir Teoranta.
