HC Deb 02 May 1904 vol 134 cc112-3
MR. WILLIAM REDMOND

I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider the advisability of withdrawing the 3d. tax on stripped tobacco and replacing it by an increased tax on imported cigars and cigarettes.

MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN

No, Sir. I am unable to adopt this suggestion.
