Mr. Hogan
The proportion of the funds administered by County Committees of Agriculture provided out of moneys voted by the Oireachtas varies slightly from year to year. For the financial year 1928-9 the proportion was approximately 68 per cent., the balance (32 per cent.) being provided out of local rates.
