asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state what are the prospects of adequate quantities of mild steel being made available to those foundries now in need of it.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Supplies of Mild Steel.
Mr. Corish
Present indications are that the prospects of getting adequate supplies of mild steel from external sources are not promising. Irish Steel Holdings, Limited, Haulbowline, have resumed the production of certain types of mild steel sections and it is hoped that supplies of these will become available at a very early date.
