Vol. 125 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Inland Revenue.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will state the total amounts collected during the year ended 31st March, 1951, in respect of (a) income-tax; (b) surtax and supertax; (c) estate duty; (d) corporation profits tax; (e) road fund; and (f) stamp duties, giving the separate sums for (i) land and property; (ii) stocks, shares, debentures etc.; (iii) cheques, bills of exchange, etc., and (iv) sweepstakes duty.

As the answer to this question is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it circulated with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—
