HC Deb 19 July 1909 vol 8 c15
Mr. WEIR

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he can see his way to grant to veterinary surgeons the same exemption in respect of the tax on motor spirit as it is proposed to grant to medical practitioners?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

My right hon. Friend regrets that he cannot see his way to extend to veterinary surgeons the concession which he has promised to medical practitioners in respect of the duty on petrol.
