Vol. 219 No. 7

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - British Butter Quotas.

113.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries the primary quota of butter allowed into Britain in each of the last five calendar years, including 1965; and the amounts of supplementary quotas granted in each calendar year.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—
