* Capital shown consists of Exchequer loan and share capital. On the 11th December, 1967, the status of the Dairy Disposal Co. Ltd., was changed from that of a company with three associated companies to that of a holding company and the combined share capital of the associated companies (£20,015) was transferred to the Consolidated Balance Sheet as part of a capital reserve on a consolidation. The capital position shown for 1967 and 1968, therefore represents Exchequer loan £584,603 and £7 issued capital of the Dairy Disposal Co. itself.

asked the Minister for Social Welfare if he will state, in respect of each of the Boards and State companies responsible to him for each year from 1959 to 1969: (a) the amount of capital employed on the 31st March, (b) how and by whom such capital was provided, (c) the yield earned on the total capital employed, (d) the return paid to the provider thereof, (e) the amount of any capital repaid or converted, (f) the total amount paid in corporation profit tax and income tax, (g) the amount set aside for depreciation, (h) the totals of (f) and (g) respectively for the ten years and (i) whether there are now adequate tangible assets to repay if need be the totals of (a) and (g); and if not, what proportion thereof.
The only board under the aegis of my Department is the Board for the Employment of the Blind which is subsidised by the State and local authorities through capitation grants, and other annual payments. While its finances do not fit into the headings in the question I might point out that the board received special grants amounting to £27,000 from the State, of which £12,000 is in process of repayment and also obtained a loan of £55,000 from an assurance company which is being repaid by annual instalments.
The tangible assets of the board are regarded as adequate to meet the liabilities.
384.

385.

The Company has sufficient assets to repay capital employed and depreciation provisions. |
NOTES (i) Single shares are held by each of the Directors of the Company and by the Secretaries of the Departments of Transport and Power, Finance and Industry and Commerce.
(ii) Up to the reorganisation in 1966, Aer Rianta had received no return on its shareholding in Aer Lingus and Aer Línte and in turn had made no payment to the Minister for Finance in respect of his ownership of the shares of Aer Rianta. The only return made by Aer Rianta was under an arrangement whereby it has, before and since 1966, surrendered to the Minister for Industry and Commerce/Transport and Power the surplus earned on the management of Dublin Airport. This is an operating surplus and is not related to the Capital asset represented by Dublin Airport which is owned by the Minister for Transport and Power.
(iii) These figures represent interest on capital from the private sector.
(iv) No ordinary capital has been repaid. The outstanding loan from the private sector was repaid in 1961 with the money received from an increase in the shareholding of the Minister for Finance in Aer Rianta. The loans from the private sector outstanding in 1966 were taken over by Aer Lingus as part of the reorganisation.

(i) |
The Company has sufficient assets to repay Capital employed and depreciation provisions. |
NOTE: (i) The rate of return reflects the large proportion of the Board's capital requirements financed from internal resources. It also reflects the effects of the rural electrification subsidy, the varying rates of interest payable and the amortisation out of Revenue of loan capital during the duration of the loan. The overriding consideration is that, by statute, the Board's revenue in each year must be sufficient and only sufficient (as nearly as may be) to pay all outgoings, including interest and sinking fund payments.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will state in respect of each of the Boards and State companies responsible to him for each year from 1959 to 1969: (a) the amount of capital employed on the 31st March, (b) how and by whom such capital was provided, (c) the yield earned on the total capital employed, (d) the return paid to the provider thereof, (e) the amount of any capital repaid or converted, (f) the total amount paid in corporation profit tax and income tax, (g) the amount set aside for depreciation, (h) the totals of (f) and (g) respectively for the 10 years and (i) whether there are now adequate tangible assets to repay (if need be) the totals of (a) and (g); and if not, what proportion thereof.
In the case of bodies coming within my jurisdiction, the Deputy's question is applicable only to those which are trading bodies not dependent for their operation on the receipt of an annual grant. The information sought in so far as it relates to such bodies is as set out below. Capital employed has been interpreted, in the light of (b) of the question, as consisting of ordinary and preference shares and loan capital.

(x) Níl na cuntais iniúchta don bhliain dar chríoch 30 Meán Fómhair 1969 ar fáil fós.
(y) Airleacan inaisíoctha saor ó ús ó Alginate Industries Limited agus ó 1964-65, iasacht faoi mhorgáiste. Níl rótharraingt bhainc ó am go chéile san áireamh.
Maidir leis an scairchaipiteal níor tiontaíodh ná níor Íocadh aon díbhinní air.
Ar 30 Meán Fómhair 1968 bhí luach na sócmhainní cuid mhaith níos mó ná iomlán an chaipi til agus an chúltaca do dhíluachadh.
Gaeltarra Éireann.
Is leis na tionscail atá á reachtáil ag Gaeltarra amháin a bhaineann an t-eolas seo: ní áirítear tionscail eile ar chabhraigh Gaeltarra leo faoi chumhachtaí a tugadh ó 1965 i leith.
Níl aon scairchaipiteal ag Gaeltarra. Nuair a bunaíodh an bord ar 1 Aibreán 1968 aistríodh luach £700,000 de mhaoin agus de charta chuige: níl an tsuim sin inaisíochta. Íoctar airleacain le Gaeltarra as an bPríomh-Chiste le haghaidh chaiteachas caipitil ar shócmhainní dochta. Ó 1961 go dtí 1965 aisíocadh £16,717 de na hairleacain sin mar aon le £38,485 ús orthu. Bhí glan-airleacan £338,283 fágtha ar 1 Aibreán 1965 agus níl sé sin inaisíochta. Na hairleacain a tugadh do Ghaeltarra ó 1 Aibreán 1965 go dtí 31 Márta 1969—£211,826 san iomlán—níl siad inaisíochta—ná ús orthu iníoctha—go dtí cibé dáta a chinnfidh an tAire Airgeadais tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle le hAire na Gaeltachta.
Ní raibh brabach ar na tionscail: is amhlaidh a íocadh deontas-i-gcabhair le Gaeltarra gach bliain as Vóta Roinn na Gaeltachta.
B'é £173,114 an glan-díluachadh suas go dtí 31 Mátra 1969. Nuair a chuirtear an glan-díluachadh sin, an glan-airleacan roimh 1 Aibreán 1965 agus na hairleacain ina dhiaidh sin le chéile faightear £723,223 san iomlán agus is mó luach na sócmhainní ná an t-iomlán sin.
