HC Deb 07 May 1925 vol 183 cc1133-4
99. Captain BENN

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has formed any estimate of the revenue to be derived from the products of Empire origin under the duties imposed or reimposed in his Budget?

Mr. CHURCHILL

It is estimated that the revenue to be derived in a full year from Empire products (excluding Great Britain) at the preferential rates of duty will be as follows:

£
Silk and artificial silk 25,000
Hops 20,000
New import duties 400,000
Captain BENN

Does the right hon. Gentleman make this as his contribution to the fiscal unity of the Empire?
