HC Deb 12 July 1917 vol 95 cc2125-6
62. Mr. KEATING

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that the Excise authorities in Kilkenny are refusing to allow owners of hogsheads of whisky in bond either to rack into a smaller cask or pay duty upon what they are entitled to or allow them to handle their spirits at all; whether in every other bonded store in Ireland racking is allowed; and will he make inquiries into the matter and have similar arrangements made in Kilkenny as in other parts of Ireland?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I am making inquiry into this matter, and will inform the hon. Member of the result.
