Written Answers. - State Property Sales.

31. Mr. Ryan asked the Minister for Finance if, in respect of State property previously in his possession and now sold, he will outline for the years 1987, 1988, 1989 and 1990 (1) the number of properties which were sold, (2) the amount which was obtained from all properties, (3) the address and price obtained for each property and (4) the purpose for which the proceeds of the sales have been used; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Minister for Finance (Mr. A. Reynolds): I propose to reply to the Deputy's question in the form of a tabular statement. It is not policy to divulge the financial details of individual commercial transactions. As shown in the statement, the proceeds of the sales were appropriated in aid of the Vote for Public Works and Buildings or were lodged to the Exchequer.

Following is the statement:

1987

1. Number of properties sold — 24.

2. (a) Total receipts in 1987 appropriated in aid of the Vote for Public Works and Buildings — £62,870.
