Paul Bradford
Ceist:106 Mr. Bradford asked the Minister for Education the reason interest payable on loans used to finance land purchase is not allowed as a deductible expense under the higher education grant scheme; the way in which this can be justified when profits earned on the land purchased with the borrowing money are taken into account in determining total farm income; if he agrees that this is an anomaly which must be rectified, and if he will make a statement on the matter.
