Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Planting of Ash.

Mr. S. Browne Mr. S. Browne

Mr. S. Browne asked the Minister for Lands if he will state the acreage of ash planted in each county for each of the years from 1952 to 1956, inclusive.

Mr. Childers Mr. Childers

161

Mr. Childers: The total number of ash trees planted in State forests in [161] each of the years mentioned by the Deputy was as follows:—

Year	Number of trees	Acreage
1952/53	101,200	84
1953/54	71,400	59
1954/55	129,900	107
1955/56	218,000	181

It would involve the expenditure of an undue amount of official time to extract figures for the planting of ash for each county as required by the Deputy. If he is interested in any particular region I shall be happy to have figures for that region supplied to him.
