asked the Taoiseach if he will give Ireland's annual trading figures with the United Kingdom over the past decade.

With your permission, Sir, I propose to circulate with the Official Report a statement showing the information requested.

Following is the statement:—

EXTERNAL trade with Great Britain and the Six Counties in each year 1960 to 1969.

Could the Parliamentary Secretary say if these figures include any arms exports? It is a very necessary question to ask.

The Deputy can put down that question if he wants to ask it.

I do not want any intervention from blunderbusses in this Assembly.
