Mr. Mullen asked the Minister [9] for Health if he has available statistics indicating the height and weight of children of different ages in Ireland and other countries; and, if so, whether he will give such statistics for children in Ireland, Britain, Sweden, France, Germany and the United States at the ages of 5, 10 and 15 years for each of the years 1922, 1932, 1942, 1952 and 1962.

Mr. MacEntee: I have not available statistics indicating the height and weight of children of different ages in Ireland and other countries abroad. I am unable, therefore, to give the information which the Deputy requests.
