MR. JACKSON () Leeds, N.

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury what is the number of the Customs and Inland Revenue warehouses in Ireland; how many of them are under the control of the Customs and Inland Revenue Departments respectively; how many are jointly used by the two Departments; and how many, if any, are the property of the Government?

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Sir J. T. HIBBERT,) Oldham

I am informed that there are in Ireland 195 general duty free warehouses under the control of the Inland Revenue (exclusive of warehouses on distillery premises), and 55 warehouses under the control of the Customs. None are used jointly by the two Departments. One Inland Revenue warehouse and four Customs warehouses are the property of the Government.

Has the right hon. Gentleman any objection to giving a list?
