asked the Minister for Finance whether he can state the amounts received from the County Galway in Motor Taxes during the past two financial years, and the amounts which have been remitted to the Galway County Council in respect of same for the purpose of road repairs.

This question should have been addressed to me. Inquiries are being made as to the amount collected and paid to the British Ministry of Transport in the financial year ended the 31st March, 1922. The amount received in the year ended the 31st March, 1923, was £2,852 15s. 6d. The share paid to County Galway of the preliminary total advance of £100,000 was £4,540.
