asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state, for each of the years 1946 and 1947, the total quantities of timber exported.

I am circulating with the Official Report a statement showing the quantity of timber (raw or partly manufactured) exported during the year 1946 and the period January-July, 1947.

Following is the statement:

IRELAND

QUANTITY OF TIMBER (RAW OR PARTLY MANUFACTURED) EXPORTED DURING THE YEAR 1946 AND THE PERIOD JANUARY-JULY, 1947.
