Vol. 126 No. 7

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Pig Prices.

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will give early consideration to a scheme whereby live pigs under 20 stone will not be subject to a graded system of prices.

Mr. Walsh

The price payable for pigs of any weight is not at present controlled. I should point out, however, that for the production of quality bacon heavy pigs are not suitable and cannot be expected to command top price.
