HC Deb 15 February 1933 vol 274 c996
48. Captain PETER MACDONALD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air whether he has now been able to secure any action with regard to the fact that, whereas foreign aircraft enjoy freedom from Customs duty on fuel taken on board by them in England, British machines purchasing fuel in foreign countries have in many eases to pay full Customs duty on such fuel?

Sir V. WARRENDER

I have been asked to reply. I regret that there is nothing as yet to add to the reply given to my hon. and gallant Friend on the 7th December last.

Captain MACDONALD

Can the hon. Gentleman state whether any action is being taken at the moment with this-object in view?

Sir V. WARRENDER

As is stated in my reply, the matter is still under consideration.
