TEXT -BOOK ON EQU ITY REQU IRED
M
embers
of the Society who may have for disposal copies
of
The Principles of 'Equity as applied in Ireland,
by T. O’Neill
Kiely, Solicitor, are asked to communicate with the Secretary.
This is one of the text books on the subject recommended in
the syllabus for the Society’s Final Examination, but the
book is out of print and is, at present, difficult to procure.
T
he
following resolution was passed
by
the Council
and the Secretary was directed to send a copy to the
Minister for Finance: “ That the Council should
renew the protest against the continuance o f stamp
duty at the rate of 5 per cent, on the transfer of land
and house property, and should urge most strongly
that the former rate of duty should be restored, on
the ground that the duty was originally introduced
as a temporary measure, and that its continuance
impedes and obstructs the legitimate sale and transfer
o f property, and has anti-social consequences where
young people contemplating marriage are con
cerned ; that the Council should also point out to
the Minister the special hardship imposed on pur
chasers o f the smaller type o f house who are usually
people of modest means, and in the case of voluntary
transfers of property from husband to wife, or wife
to husband, on account o f the exclusion o f the last
mentioned transfers from the benefit o f Section
13 (6) o f the Finance (N o . 2) Act, 1947.”
