§ 29. Mr. O'DONNELLasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether he is aware that the regulations regarding the sale of pigs will, if enforced, have the effect of closing the two bacon factories in Tralee, which employ over 200 men; whether he is aware that this is practically the only industry in the town; and whether he will take steps to secure that every facility will be given to these factories to remain open?
§ Mr. CLYNESI am informed that both the bacon factories in Tralee have been allotted supplies of pigs, and that there will be no necessity for either to close down.
