§ Mr. Peter RobinsonTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what were the net yields of value added tax from each district council in Northern Ireland in the most recent financial year for which information is available.
§ Mrs. Gillian ShephardLocal authorities receive funds of value added tax rather than producing a net yield because they are generally not involved in large-scale12W business activities. Information about district councils in the form requested could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
