Vol. 59 No. 10

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Imports of Boots and Shoes.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state the total quantity and value of rubber boots and shoes imported into the Free State during the three months ended 31st March, 1933; 31st March, 1934, and 31st March, 1935.

As there has been a number of changes in the official import list descriptions of imports of boots and shoes of rubber or containing rubber, I am circulating with the Official Report a statement giving details of the required information.

Imports of Boots and Shoes of rubber or containing rubber into Saorstát Eireann in the first three months of each of the years 1933, 1934 and 1935.
