Question:212 Mr. J. Mitchell and Mr. Connor asked the Minister for Education if her attention has been drawn to the imminent danger of Dublin Zoo closing due to a shortage of funds of approximately £500,000; if, while awaiting the interim and final report of the working party set up to study the problems of Dublin Zoo which are expected in April and June 1990 respectively, she will immediately make available an interest free loan of that amount in order to avert a crisis in Dublin Zoo; or if she will consider other immediate financial assistance.
