With your permission, Sir, I propose to take Questions Nos. 14, 15, and 16 together and to circulate in the Official Report a tabular statement showing the number of holdings in each of the specified rateable valuation groups as returned in the Agricultural Enumeration of 1960. Estimates of the total rateable valuation are included in the statement. The data relate to returns covering the total valuation of land and buildings on each holding. Separate particulars for the valuation of land only are not available.

Following is the statement:
