Vol. 359 No. 11

Written Answers. - Tax on Farming Profits.

12.

(Limerick West) asked the Minister for Finance if the 36,000 full time farmers on accounts in 1983-84 farmed in excess of 5 million acres and if the income tax paid by them will probably not exceed £6 per acre.

Income tax on farming profits has never been assessed by reference to the acreage of the land farmed. Accordingly, it is not possible to provide the information sought by the Deputy.
