asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) what is the Isle of Man's current contribution to the United Kingdom exchequer in the form of the imperial contribution; and what changes have been effected in that contribution in the last two years;(2) what was the total of duties, levies, and so on, collected under the common purse agreement with the Isle of Man; what was the distribution between the Isle of Man and the United Kingdom in the last full year; and what will be the effect on that distribution of the new formula proposed in the Isle of Man Bill.

I will let the hon. Member have a reply as soon as possible.
