HC Deb 25 June 1928 vol 219 c37
62. Mr. R. MORRISON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has received a copy of a resolution passed at the annual conference of the Fire Brigades Association urging that petrol consumed by fire engines and ambulances should be exempt from the tax on petrol; and whether he has decided to accede to this request?

Mr. SAMUEL

My right hon. Friend has received a copy of the resolution referred to. As regards the second part of the question, he regrets that he cannot see his way to give the exemption suggested.
