asked the Minister for Agriculture if a mobile office could be provided at Ennistymon, County Clare, on mart days to deal with queries regarding calves, as farmers from north Clare must travel a long distance to the offices in Ennis.

Officers of my Department are in regular attendance at Ennistymon on mart days and are provided with an office on the mart premises. These officers are in a position to deal with whatever queries are raised by herdowners at that mart.
