asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will specify the decisions which have been taken by him so far this year which will require the passing of a Supplementary Estimate before the end of 1977; the likely annual cost of each of these measures; and if there are other factors which will necessitate such a Supplementary Estimate.

I expect that a Supplementary Estimate for my Department will be introduced this week and details of its provisions will then be available to Deputies.
