§ MR. M. HEALYI 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 BALFOURThe 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.
