HC Deb 22 March 1932 vol 263 c867
47. Mr. DONNER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the fact that the bottling of beer in this country gives employment to British labour, he will consider, when considering the Beer Duty, allowing the importation of beer for bottling at a lower rate than beer imported in bottles?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Sir ERNEST SHEPPERSON

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

That is really my hon. Friend's suggestion.
