CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - EGG INSPECTORS.
Mr. HOGAN
The number of inspectors carrying out duties under the Agricultural Produce (Eggs) Act, including four lady inspectors, is 14. A certain proportion of the time, however, of six of these officers is devoted to general marketing work and other duties. The salaries paid to these inspectors amount to £2,984.
