HC Deb 01 December 1925 vol 188 c2037
52. Mr. PILCHER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in his quest for new sources of taxation, foe has weighed the merits of the imposts now levied almost universally on foreign visitors to the Continental capitals of Europe in the shape of percentage taxes on hotel bills graded according to the standards of luxury or economy observed by the visitors?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which my right hon. Friend gave to the hon. Member for Gravesend (Mr. Albery) on the 26th November.
