asked the Taoiseach if he will state the number and value of cattle exported to countries, other than Great Britain, in each of the latest three months for which particulars are available, giving separate particulars in respect of each country.

I propose with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle to circulate in the Official Report a statement showing the particulars required.
