HC Deb 20 March 1912 vol 35 c1869
Mr. ROYDS

asked how many final valuations of land have been made under the provisions of the Finance (1909–10) Act, 1910?

Mr. MASTERMAN

I am not in a position to furnish the information asked for by the hon. Member. As has been previously stated, the information could only be obtained by the expenditure of considerable time and labour, and the information would no longer be correct by the time it was summarised.

Mr. ROYDS

Can the hon. Gentleman state on what information the Attorney-General based his recent statement to the House that one-fifth of the task of valuation had been completed?
