I also place on record an interim statement of the gross capital pay-- ments for the fiscal year, April 1 1939, to March 31, 1940, being ten months actual and two months fore-- cast, the total being $38,116,705.00. The ordinary revenue for the fis-- cal year reflects conditions in part due to the war and, in part, to other causes which I shall mention. In order that the members may see for themselves the items which have fallen short of the amount esti-- mated, I shall, with the permission of the House, table a comparative statement of the gross ordinary revenue for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1940, showing the Budget forecast and the interim statement of revenue, which show ten months' actual receipts and two months es-- timated. It will be observed that the reve-- nue shows a net decrease of $M,-- 945,000 over the forecast. The Motor Vehicles branch accounted for $1,203,000 of this difference; Mines, $346,000; Liquor Control Board revenue, $950,000; succes-- sion Duty, $3,600,000; Security Transfer Tax, $246,000, and Land Transfer Tax, $27,000, There are offsetting items of increase which improve the picture somewhat and these increases are shown on the comparative statement which I now table. The largest deficiency in revenue is in respect to Succession Duty, and this is due to the diffi«-- culties placed in the way of the Government arising out of the in-- junction obtained in what is known as the Kaufman case. 1 also table an interim statement of the gross ordinary revenue for the fiscal year April 1, 1939, to March 31, 1940, being ten months actual and two months estimated. 7--INSURANCE # a e e a e a a # # # B--LABOR w w e 0 e 6 e e e 6 # 0 # 8 # # 8 9--LANDS AND FORESTS IO--LEGXSLATION # a a a a a # a # ll--MINES w w e h e e# a e e a a 6# # # # 12--MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS: Main Office ...........
