HC Deb 14 April 1932 vol 264 c985
42. Captain ERSKINE-BOLST

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the importance to the trades affected of a revision of duties imposed on goods whose nature was not originally understood when the Import Duties Act was passed, he will make a statement at the earliest possible date?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

If my hon. and gallant Friend will let me know the particular point which he has in mind, I shall be happy to have it looked into. I may remind him that under the Import Duties Act the Advisory Committee will have power to recommend the revision of duties imposed tinder that Act.

44. Mr. CHRISTIE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the amount collected by way of duty on the sugar content of the sweetened condensed milk imported into this country during the last financial year?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The approximate amount was £613,000.

47. Captain ERSKINE-BOLST

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether any decision has yet been reached with regard to the assessment of Customs duties on imported undeveloped films; and what is the nature of such decision?

Major ELLIOT

If my hon. and gallant Friend will furnish me with particulars as to the precise point on which he is expecting a decision, I will be glad to make inquiries.
