Passport fees . The estimated amount is almost identical
to the actual collection of 1350.
Judicial receipts . The estimated revenue is Rs 3000/- less
than the actual amount collected during 1350.
Land Registration & Leases . These two headings have been
estimated at Rs 2000/- less than last year. The revenue
from registration of titles & sales has steadily increased
each year so it is to be hoped that the actual revenue will
exceed this amount.
Rents on Govt, lands . Consists of Rs 10,000/- oil conces
sion lease and £120/- from the R.A.F. for lease of the Aero
drome together with land rents fompersons occupying Govt;
A
land, the last item is likely to decrease as the tenants
are persons of the poorest class and have much difficulty
in paying anything.
Interest on reserve . This amount is due during the new
year being interest paid by the Eastern Bank on the Reserve
Fund which they hold on deposit account. When this money
was invested the interest was unusually high.
Loans Recoverable . The Government now holds a mortgage
on some property of Mohomed bin Subah Al-bin-Ali who owes
Rs 9000/- the balance of a loan made to him three years ago.
It is doubtful whether the whole of this amount will be
recovered this year.
