Vol. 242 No. 9

Ceisteann—Questions. Oral Answers. - Tomato Prices.

13.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries if he is aware of the complaints about the abnormally high prices of tomatoes on the Irish market; if he has investigated any such complaint; and if he proposes to take any action in the matter.

The tomato position has been kept under very close review in the light of supplies and prices for home crop tomatoes and an announcement was made in the daily press on the 12th November that resumption of imports would be permitted from the 18th November. I am not aware that there was any volume of complaints about tomato prices or that prices were abnormally high.
