Vol. 165 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Department Purchases at Bull Sales.

Mr. O.J. Flanagan

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will furnish details of his Department's purchases of live stock at the Royal Dublin Society bull sales held in Dublin recently, the price paid by the Department in respect of each animal, and the name of the vendor in each case.

Mr. Smith

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it circulated in the Official Report.
