asked the Minister for Finance if he will state the cost per ton in tenders accepted for turf delivered to the following institutions for each of the five years ended 1957: Cahirciveen employment exchange, Valentia meteorological observatory, and the Garda barracks at Cahirciveen.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Cost of Turf in Kerry Institutions.
As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to circulate it in the Official Report.
I have no information about the price paid for turf used in Cahirciveen Garda Station. Provisional Garda stations receive a fixed allowance from the Department of Justice for heating and lighting services, and make their own arrangements locally for the supply of fuel.
Following is the statement:—
