HC Deb 05 July 1928 vol 219 cc1564-5
43. Major COHEN

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will reconsider the remission or abolition of the tax which is payable by ex-service men in possession of a motor attachment to their tricycles.

The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Colonel Ashley)

I have been asked to answer this question. I presume the hon. Member refers to disabled ex-service men who use specially constructed invalid tricycles. The annual rate of taxation on such vehicles is 5s., and I do not think there is any ground for remitting this nominal registration fee.
