§ realised amounts from Ireland under Sub-head II.
§ (Answered by Mr. Secretary Gladstone.) The following statement shows the estimated amount of the grant and expenditure on account of Ireland during the year 1906–7, and the estimated and realised amounts from Ireland under Sub head II. (Appropriations in Aid)—
§ Civil Service Appropriation Accounts 1906–7.
§ (Answered by Mr. Kearley.) No separate accounts are kept of the sums voted and expended on account of 1727 Ireland under Votes 8 and 9. In the annual Financial Relations Return (House of Commons Paper, No. 245, of 1907) the expenditure under these Votes has always been treated as common to the United Kingdom. Before the next Return is prepared I will ascertain whether it will be possible to give an approximate estimate of the expenditure on English, Scottish, and Irish services. Expenditure under Vote 10 is for the administration of the Bankruptcy Acts, 1883 and 1890, and the Companies (Winding up) Act, 1890, which do not extend to Ireland.
