CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - TELEGRAPHIC SERVICES.
The information desired by the Deputy is not available at the moment. If the Deputy will put down a question at a later date, I will endeavour to give him a complete answer.
Supposing I were to put down a question for this day week, would it be all right?
That would suit me all right.
