HC Deb 23 February 1927 vol 202 c1762
68. Colonel DAY

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the results of the working of the Betting Duty, and whether any detailed changes are contemplated in this regard?

Mr. RONALD McNEILL

The Debates on the Finance Bill would appear to afford the appropriate opportunities for discussing and re-discussing this subject. My right hon. Friend will then be prepared to enter fully into the questions raised by the hon. Member, and he does not consider that advantage would result from anticipatory discussion.

Colonel DAY

Has the right hon. Gentleman been asked to receive deputation of the parties interested in this question before the Finance Bill?

Mr. McNEILL

I cannot say. The question should be addressed to my right hon. Friend.
