Order of Business.
The business of the day will be taken as on the Order Paper. We propose to take first the introductory speech on the Second Reading of the Housing (Financial and Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill, 1932....
I am not quite sure if an understanding has been reached in that connection, but the position is that after the introductory speech on the Housing Bill the Committee Stage of the Finance Bill will be ...
Housing (Financial and Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill, 1932—Second Stage.
On the annuities system or instalments?
Then the annuity is £6 13s. 4d.?
In Committee on Finance. - Finance Bill, 1932—Committee Stage (Resumed).
A good deal of the transport costs of this country for the last two years have been uneconomic and an inquiry here in Dublin with one of the most important transport companies in the country illustrat...
I find that the figure per seat that I mentioned for the biggest transport company outside the rail roads, and which was the subject of an inquiry some time ago, is £6 11s 11d. according to the charge...
The Minister neglected to tell the House that this Bill, which gives this particular concession to what he calls the smaller bus companies of a seating tax of £3 6s. 8d., imposes a seating tax of £6 ...
That is not the question. The question is that you cannot stand over it.
We will show the Minister whether we have the moral courage or not.
I will call the Minister's bluff now.
Were they doctored?
The ex-President has never doctored any report, and he does not read his speeches. We will raise the question on Tuesday about that particular remark.

I move amendment 77:— Before Section 36 to insert a new section as follows:— Corporation profits tax shall not be chargeable on profit arising in an accounting period commencing after the 30th day of ...
No.
Will the Minister agree to put down 31st December, 1931? That settles the point.
Corporation profits tax started about 1919, the tax being imposed in 1920. This goes back a year beyond the original intention of the framers of it in the first instance. It goes back a year beyond ...
It is not defensible.
I propose to divide on Section 41. If the House wishes, we can pass Section 42 and the Title and divide on Section 41.
Yes.
No, you caught me out on the last one.
I was absent when you got through. If Section 42 and the Title are put you can then divide on Section 41 and finish it. SECTION 42. (1) This Act may be cited as the Finance Act, 1932. (2) Part I of...
On Section 41, there are various repeals in the Schedule in connection with this. There is one outstanding case, No. 35 of 1926, where it is proposed to alter the whole complexion of the concession w...
And there is, at least, one case on record in which that occurred.
Where is it?
Where is that?
What is the reason for not taking the Bill on Tuesday?
Can we not take portion of the Bill and the amendments which would be ready and dispose of that part of the Bill? It is quite possible that we will have time to spare on Tuesday.
