§ 49. Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can supply any estimate of the total profits made on the production of rubber in British territory during the year 1924–25 or 1925–26 which may be liable to British Income Tax?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI regret that I am net in a position to furnish the desired estimate.
§ Colonel WEDGWOODHas there been a very large increase this year? Is it twice as much or five times as much?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLThere has been a substantial increase, I am glad to say, but I could not, without very great labour, give an approximate figure.
