HC Deb 13 March 1919 vol 113 c1466
72. Colonel PICKERING

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that the lack of a definite statement concerning Excess Profits Duty is impeding business and that the continuance of this war tax is causing the general public to have to pay unnecessarily high prices for all kinds of wearing apparel and other necessaries; and whether he is prepared to make any statement on the subject?

Mr. BALDWIN

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer that I gave on the 20th February in reply to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Forfar.
