CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - BRITISH AND IRISH STEAM PACKET COMPANY—QUESTION OF DIVIDENDS.
The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. As regards the second part, income tax is not payable by the company to the Saorstát Revenue under the terms of the 1926 Agreement with Great Britain in respect of double income tax, because the company is managed and controlled in Great Britain.
