‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Import Substitution. Food imports committee and import levels
Summary
Brennan asks about the ministerial committee on the food import bill and seeks figures on food imports. The Chair distinguishes the detailed figures from the general question; Bruton notes the committee was not set up solely for import substitution.
Could the Minister tell the House what became of the committee of Ministers of State which was set up some time ago to tackle the food import Bill? How many times have the committee met and when is their report expected?
Comment on this
Could the Minister indicate the present level of food imports and what percentage is Irish?
