My Department does not have the information requested by the Deputy. I can inform the Deputy, however, that to date in 1998 nine film projects have received certification under section 481 of the Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997, formerly section 35 of the Finance Act, 1987, as amended, and a further five applications are currently being processed by my Department.
