Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Cork Airport Expenditure.

16. Mr. Lindsay asked the Minister for Transport and Power if he will state the total expenditure so far incurred in relation to Cork Airport.

Mr. Childers: The total expenditure on Cork Airport up to 31st March, 1959 is £76,928.

Mr. Dillon: Did I understand the Minister to say up to the 31st March, 1959?

Mr. Childers: Yes.

Mr. Dillon: The Minister is aware that the question speaks as of the 10th March, 1960, so the Minister's figure is 12 months out of date.

Mr. Childers: I shall have that looked at.

Mr. Dillon: I suggest the Minister might consider the desirability of having this question put back on the Order Paper for a more comprehensive reply.
