Ruairí Quinn
Ceist:171 Mr. Quinn asked the Minister for Finance if, having regard to the programme of awareness of buying Irish, promoted by the Government and An Bord Tráchtála, his attention has been drawn to the fact that the Stationery Office authorised a change in purchasing policy whereby paper-clips for the use of Deputies/Senators and staff of Leinster House, which had previously been supplied by an Irish manufacturer, are now supplied with paper-clips made in China (details supplied), and if he will make a statement on the matter.
