HC Deb 23 May 1898 vol 58 c385
MR. M. HEALY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will have circulated as a Return or Parliamentary Paper the summary read by him on Monday showing the different methods of municipal taxation in Irish urban areas?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

The summary read by me on Monday last was found to require some correction as regards individual towns and boroughs, but the Commissioner of Valuation has now prepared a fuller and more accurate Return, which will at once be laid on the Table. I may say, however, that great difficulty has been experienced in getting these statistics together, and that I am not prepared to guarantee that they are absolutely free from error even now.
