I propose to take Questions Nos. 59 and 63 together.
I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that to determine the information on the number of gillies working for tourist shoot promoters requested by the Deputy would require identification of the cases involved and an individual examination of all the income tax returns of such cases. Such an examination could be carried out only at a disproportionate cost.
With regard to the second question raised by the Deputy, I have been advised by the Revenue Commissioners that, in the main, tourist shoot promotion is an ancillary aspect of the hotel, countryhouse and guesthouse business. Under the self-assessment system, profits derived from this activity, whether or not accommodation is provided, are required to be included in the returns made to the Revenue Commissioners.
