HC Deb 02 June 1908 vol 189 c1715
MR. BOULTON (Huntingdonshire, Ramsey)

I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer if his attention has been called to the fact that the Paper issued by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue setting forth the practice of the Department in dealing for Death Duty purposes with the various interests connected with the sale of intoxicating liquors and ordered by the House of Commons to be printed on 14th May, 1890, has been reprinted by the King's printers this year, with the words upon it, Reprinted, 1908; and if he will inform the House by whose instructions and at whose request this Paper was reprinted.

THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. HOBHOUSE,) Bristol, E.

H.C. Paper No. 176 of 1890, Inland Revenue (Death Duties), Public Houses, was reprinted by H.M. Stationery Office, in the ordinary course for sale to the public, in order to meet the heavy demand for the Paper.

MR. BOULTON

Has this Paper been superseded by a later Paper, and, if so, will the later one be circulated?

MR. HOBHOUSE

I am not aware, but I will make inquiries.
