Descriptions of the land tenure systems in EEC and other countries are available in various publications of FAO and other organisations. If the Deputy so desires, I shall arrange to have information on the subject collected and sent to him from my Department. So far as I am aware, no authoritative information about the systems of taxation of land and buildings in operation in European countries has, so far, been published.
