HC Deb 27 April 1932 vol 265 c368
56. Colonel RUGGLES-BRISE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, in making regulations for the collection of the Excise Duty on stocks of tea in traders' hands, he will exempt from duty the first 1,000 lbs. of all such stocks in order to prevent unfair discrimination between traders?

Major ELLIOT

I would refer my hon. Friend to yesterday's Debate in the House on this point on an Amendment to the Budget Tea Resolution moved by the hon. Member for Merthyr Tydvil (Mr. Wallhead).
