Live pig imports in 1982

Summary

The Minister reported 590,606 live pigs imported in 1982, valued at £45.8 million. Asked where they came from, he said he lacked the information and suggested the question was for the Minister for Agriculture; Haughey said they could only have come from Northern Ireland.

Ned O'Keeffe Mr. E. O'Keeffe Fianna Fáil

asked the Taoiseach the number of live pigs imported in 1982; and their value.
