HC Deb 21 June 1933 vol 279 c751
21. Captain P. MACDONALD

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

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for AIR (Sir Philip Sassoon)

Statistical information has now been collected by the League of Nations, and the question has been remitted to the appropriate advisory and technical committee.
