HC Deb 17 December 1908 vol 198 cc2075-6
MR. WALTER ROCH (Pembroke)

To ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer if he can give the estimated cost per cent. of collecting the revenue derived from direct and indirect taxation, respectively.

(Answered by Mr. Lloyd-George.) The same revenue officers sometimes collect both kinds of revenue, and the separate cost therefore cannot be given.
