Is this the Bill designed to put a further £250,000 on the rates on agricultural land?
Rates on Agricultural Land (Relief) Bill, 1953—First Stage.
Leave granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to extend, subject to modifications, the Rates on Agricultural Land (Relief) Act, 1946.—(Minister for Local Government).
This is a Bill for which the Deputy has been pressing me for some weeks and if he has patience for a few hours he will see the full text of the proposals.
This is the Bill, I take it, to put another £250,000 on the rates.
Is it to be circulated to-day?
As soon as possible.
Second Stage ordered for Wednesday, 28th October.
