Vol. 41 No. 3

Written Answers. - Grants to Local Bodies.

asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health to state the amounts of the various grants paid to each county council for each of the financial years ended the 31st March, 1931 and 1932, and the amounts deducted from each in respect of unpaid Land Commission annuities for those years.

It is presumed that the information required by the Deputy has reference only to the Local Taxation Grants which are hypothecated to the Guarantee Fund in connection with land purchase. The following statement shows the amounts of such grants paid to the County Councils for the years ended 31st March, 1931 and 1932, and the net amounts deducted therefrom in connection with land purchase operations.

Agricultural Grant (including Additional Supplementary Grant of £750,000 payable in 1931/32).
