Vol. 104 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Bread Ration for School Children.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will grant an increased bread ration for children attending school who are unable to come home to their mid-day meal; and to children living more than half a mile away from the school they are attending.

Additional allowances of bread are being given to a number of schools providing meals to the children. I am prepared to consider applications for similar allowances from other schools, but I could not undertake to consider individual cases of the kind referred to by the Deputy.
