§ MR. LOGAN (Leicestershire, Harborough)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade if his attention has been called to Table 14 of the Statistical Abstract for the United Kingdom for 1892, compiled by the Commercial Department of the Board of Trade, in which, while the income from land subject to Income Tax is stated to have decreased in England and Wales to the amount of £ 10,432,645, and in Scotland to the amount of £1,314,854, between the years 1877 and 1891 inclusive, the income from land subject to Income Tax in Ireland has increased by £3,687 during the same period; and whether he can state the class of laud to which this increase is due, and say in which portion of Ireland it is situated?
§ THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Sir J. T. HIBBERT,) OldhamPerhaps I may be allowed to answer this. The Commissioners of Inland Revenue are endeavouring to procure this information; but, as they have had to issue circulars to various officers in Ireland, there has not been time to collate the replies. Perhaps the hon. Gentleman would put down the question for Monday week.
