Vol. 165 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Earnings from Tourism.

asked the Taoiseach if he will indicate how this country's earnings from tourism are calculated.

A full description of the method of estimation of the country's earnings from tourism and travel and the corresponding expenditure by Irish residents outside the country is given in the article, "Tourist and Other Travel Receipts and Expenditure", published in the September, 1951, issue of the Irish Trade Journal and Statistical Bulletin, to which I would refer the Deputy.

Has the Parliamentary Secretary any objection to making that available on the records of the House so that the general public will be made aware of how these figures are reached?

I shall see if that can be done.
