§ 24. Mr. STOURTONasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the yield from Entertainments Duty during the past financial year for the following admission prices: up to and including 6d., from 7d. to 1s., inclusive, from 1s. 1d. to 2s. 6d., inclusive, from 2s. 7d. to 3s. 6d., inclusive, and from 5s. and upwards?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI am afraid that the information desired by my hon. Friend cannot be given, as detailed statistics of the Entertainments Duty at the various prices of admission are not available.
§ Mr. STOURTONCan the right hon. Gentleman say approximately what proportion of the Entertainments Duty is paid on the admission prices up to sixpence?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINNo, Sir. As I have said, there is no division of receipts of duty from the various classes of seats.
