As I indicated in my reply to a question by the Deputy on 23rd February, 1967, State investment in Ceimicí Teoranta is by way of cash for ordinary shares on which a dividend is paid. The dividend for the year ended 30th September, 1966, after payment of tax, was £16,526. During the company's year ended 30-9-66, the company had no loan finance and accordingly no interest was payable.
