HC Deb 10 May 1887 vol 314 c1461
MR. CRAIG SELLAR (Lanarkshire, Partick)

asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, If it is his intention to consider the question of the Stamp Acts, with the view of introducing a measure next Session to deal with the anomalies now existing in these Acts?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. GOSCHEN) (St. George's, Hanover Square)

It is somewhat early to ask me what measures I shall see my way to introduce next Session; but certainly it would be my desire, so far as it is possible to do so, to review the many anomalies that exist in the Stamp Acts, and I will give my best attention to the subject, including the point which I know the hon. Member is interested in with regard to stamps upon leases, and other documents of that description.
