§ 59. Major Sir ARCHIBALD SINCLAIRasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is in a position to state what proportion of the public revenue was derived during the year 1922–23 from Scottish sources; and what proportion of the estimated revenue of the current year he expects to derive from the same sources?
§ Mr. SNOWDENSo far as can be estimated, slightly over 10 per cent. of the tax revenue in 1922–23 was attributable to Scotland. I have no reason to suppose that the proportion in 1923–24 will be materially different.
