asked the Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries if he will consider employing specialists in an advisory capacity for the assistance of growers of tomatoes and flowers as a result of the competitiveness of the market for these products.

While the horticultural instructors employed by county committees of agriculture are available for the general assistance of growers of tomatoes and flowers, the question of the need for additional specialist officers in my Department to operate in support of the advisory services is at present under examination.
