HC Deb 21 July 1910 vol 19 c1448
Mr. GRETTON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he proposes to announce a concession on the valuation of licensed houses in Great Britain similar to the concession made in the case of licensed premises in Ireland of upwards of £50 annual value?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Ayr Burghs on Monday last.

Mr. GRETTON

Will the right hon. Gentleman consider the advisability of making the alteration suggested in the forthcoming Budget?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I do not think any alteration is necessary for the very reason I gave to the hon. Member for Ayr Burghs (Mr. George Younger), because we are seeking the revaluation of the whole Kingdom.

Mr. J. G. BUTCHER

When does the right hon. Gentleman anticipate the valuation will be completed?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I could not say that.
