HC Deb 21 March 1927 vol 204 c40
80. Mr. H. WILLIAMS

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the length of negative cinematograph film imported during the calendar year 1926; the length of such film which was re-exported; and in respect of how much of the latter was drawback paid on re- exportation?

Mr. McNEILL

The length of negative cinematograph film imported during the calendar year 1926 was 6,424,620 feet of the standard width of 1⅜ inches; the quantity re-exported was 3,562,720 feet, of which quantity 40,313 feet were exported on drawback.

Colonel DAY

Can the right hon. Gentleman say whether that is an increase on the exportation of 1925?

Mr. McNEILL

I have not the figures before me for 1925. Perhaps the hon. Gentleman would put a question down on the Paper and then I will answer it.
