HC Deb 14 May 1914 vol 62 cc1296-7W
Mr. NEWMAN

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the total amount of assigned revenue that will be withdrawn from Ireland in the event of the proposals as outlined in his Budget Statement being carried into effect?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

The payments to the Local Taxation (Ireland) Account for the year 1913–14 amounted to £1,471,000, and will be dealt with as I explained in my reply to the hon. Member for West Bristol on Tuesday last.

Mr. MITCHELL-THOMSON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will issue a Memorandum showing the estimated effect of the Budget proposals upon the financial provisions of the Government of Ireland Bill?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

There would appear to be no necessity for another Memorandum as suggested by the hon. Member, but there will be an opportunity for discussing the subject in the course of the Debate on the Financial Resolution in connection with the Government of Ireland Bill.
