371 Mr. C. Lenihan asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the fact that an organisation (details supplied) is applying for charitable status; and his views in this regard. [21056/98]
Applications for exemption from certain taxes by bodies established for charitable purposes are considered by the Revenue Commissioners under the provisions of the relevant tax legislation. Decisions in this area are a matter for the Revenue Commissioners who deal with applications of this nature without reference to me as Minister for Finance.
