§ 30. Mr. BOLANDasked the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture (Ireland) whether steps have been taken to circulate, as a Parliamentary Paper, in formation as to the agricultural output of Ireland in 1908 which has been published by the Department; and can he state when the summary tables showing the entire productive capacity of Ireland will be published?
§ Mr. T. W. RUSSELL (Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture, Ireland)The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. A report on the agriculture output of Ireland in 1908 prepared in connection with the Census of Production Act, 1906, was recently published by the Department, and copies were sent to the Irish Press, to the Irish Members of Parliament, and to others. As regards the last part of the question, information respecting the output of Irish industries other than that of agriculture has already been published by the Board of Trade.
§ Mr. BOLANDCan the right hon. Gentleman say whether summaries of these particular reports have been published?
§ Mr. RUSSELLYes, Sir, I think they have.
