asked the Minister for Finance if he will state, for the last year for which such figures are available, what the revenue to the State amounted to respectively under each of the five schedules of Income Tax.

The year 1923-24 was the first year for which assessments were made for the Saorstát. Until the accounts for that year are closed and detailed schedules of discharge and default are available, it will not be possible to state how much of the revenue collected was attributable to each Schedule. These schedules are not expected to be ready for at least another year.
