HC Deb 15 June 1920 vol 130 cc1077-8
52. Mr. G. TERRELL

asked the Prime Minister when it is proposed to proceed with the Committee stage of the Finance Bill; and when the Government Amendments in regard to the Excess Profits Duty will be tabled?

Mr. BALDWIN

I regret that I am not yet in a position to answer the first part of the question. As regards the second part of the question, the Government Amendments were tabled last Wednesday evening and appeared in the Votes and Proceedings on Thursday last.

Mr. TERRELL

May we take it that the Committee stage of the Finance Bill will not be taken next week?

Mr. BALDWIN

There is no chance of that.

Mr. A. SHORT

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when the Central Control Board (Liquor Traffic) will be made amenable to this House?

Mr. SPEAKER

That question does not arise.
