asked the Taoiseach the quantity and value of anthracite coal and phurnacite imported during the year ended 31st December, 1964.

With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I propose to circulate in the Official Report, a statement showing the particulars requested by the Deputy in so far as they are available. Imports of phurnacite are not separately enumerated but are included under "Other" anthracite.

Following is the statement:—
