Mr. WALTER GUINNESS

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he can give the imports and exports of each province of Ireland and also of the counties of Down, Armagh Antrim, Tyrone, Fermanagh, and Londonderry?

Mr. BURNS

Particulars of the direct trade of each Irish port with foreign countries and British possessions in each the years 1908–1912 will be found in Volume II. of the Annual Statement of the Trade of the United Kingdom for 1912. but this does not include goods imported at ports of Great Britain but destined for consumption in Ireland or goods of Irish production which are shipped abroad from ports in Great Britain. Moreover, no statistics are available with regard to the movement of goods between one province or county and another.
