HC Deb 17 October 1916 vol 86 c398W
Mr. BOLAND

asked the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture (Ireland) what progress has been made with the Report on Irish imports and exports for the year 1915; and when will the publication be issued?

Mr. T. W. RUSSELL

The Department are doing all that is practicable to have the Report in question issued, and hope that it may be published before the end of the present year. It may be added that the compilation of this Report has been much handicapped by the fact that several of the staff previously employed in connection with it have joined His Majesty's Forces.
