asked the Taoisseach the tonnage of cement that was imported in May, June and July 1984.

(Dún Laoghaire): Imports of cement amounted to 10,456 tonnes in May 1984, 7,343 tonnes in June 1984 and 11,839 tonnes in July 1984. The figure for July is provisional.

Can the Minister tell me if those are the figures for cement which came across from Northern Ireland and that Border region or are they direct imports to the ports here?

(Dún Laoghaire): In June 1984 imports from Northern Ireland were 3,902 tonnes.

Officially?

(Dún Laoghaire): Yes.

(Dún Laoghaire): If the Deputy has any information I will let him pass it on to the appropriate authorities.
