HC Deb 30 March 1914 vol 60 c827
99. Mr. F. HALL

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the amount of the revenue derived from duties on food stuffs imported into this country in 1913?

Mr. MONTAGU

My right hon. Friend gave figures for the last completed financial year in answer to the hon. Member's question of the 14th August last. My right hon. Friend will be able to give further figures when he has made his annual financial statement.

Mr. F. HALL

May I ask whether, in the forthcoming Budget the Chancellor of the Exchequer will consider the advisability of taking these taxes off and putting them on—

Mr. SPEAKER

The hon. Gentleman should give notice of that question.
