Official Report & Apvie

Mr. HARCOURT: she answer to the first part of the hon. Gentleman's ques- tion is in the affirmative. I cannot answer the second part without much longer notice than the hon. Gentleman has given. In recent years the cost of the Post Office has sometimes exceeded and sometimes fallen short of the receipts. For the pre- sent year the estimated revenue is $403,100 and the estimated expenditure $456,897.

Mr. STEWART: Is it the case that the Colony pays an Income Tax of 20 per cent. of the receipts of a Department on which it loses $60,000 a year?

Mr. HARCOURT: I cannot make the calculation as rapidly as the hon. Mem- ber, but I will work it out and give an

answer.
