HC Deb 22 June 1903 vol 124 c69
MR. BLACK (Banffshire)

I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will state on what items the increase of £2,207,000 on Customs duties, shown in his Budget statement, arises; and the increase applicable to each.

*THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. RITCHIE,) Croydon

This is a Question which might very properly be unstarred, because there is a vast amount of figures involved, and it does not seem reasonable to ask me to read them out. If the hon. Member will consent, I will supply him with a copy.

MR. BLACK

To-day?

*MR. RITCHIE

Yes, at once.
