Lieut.-Commander YOUNG

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the estimated maximum sum that would have to be paid into the Irish Land Purchase Fund or Account in any one year under Section 24, Sub-section (2), of the Government of Ireland Bill, 1920?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The future amounts of existing annuities are subject to conditions which cannot be accurately foreseen, but it is estimated that the maximum will slightly exceed £3,800,000.
