asked the Minister for Lands if he will state what price per stone it is proposed to pay during the present summer (a) for carrageen moss for industrial purposes, and (b) for carrageen moss for food.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Carrageen Moss Prices.
The Department is paying 1/6 per stone for carrageen of good average quality, and 2/6 per stone for first grade quality.
Arising out of the Minister's reply, can he say if there is a considerable quantity of carrageen moss for disposal?
I would require notice before giving a definite reply in that case.
