Vol. 127 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - National Income.

asked the Taoiseach if he will state how the national income was shared between (a) wages, (b) salaries, (c) company profits, (d) profits of small traders, (e) rent, and (f) interest for the latest available year.

An analysis of national income in precisely the form which the Deputy requires is not available.

The particulars available bearing generally on the subject of the question are those given in Table I of the White Paper "Tables of National Income and Expenditure, 1938 and 1944-50" (Pr. 350).

Can the information asked for not be got?

Not in precisely the form in which the Deputy asks for it.

Is there any difficulty in getting the information asked for?

The only information available is to be found in Table I of the White Paper "Tables of National Income and Expenditure, 1938 and 1944-50".

I have read that. I am asking a straight question—is the information asked for impossible to get?

It is not available in the form the Deputy requires.

Is it impossible to get it?

It was not collected.
